More worry if you re-open the schools.  Why?  Scientists say that the testing and contact tracing is not good enough to stop a second wave of virus.  If kids are in school, then parents can go out and that would make it easier for the virus to pass on. Everyone agrees that school is important but controlling the virus is higher priority.  Government says schools have to open.  This argument is continuing in the USA as well.  Teachers and scientists are worried, Government says it is OK.
Emigration not immigration?  Since Brexit referendum, 76 thousand British people have moved to the EU every year.  Many people who moved have become citizens of that country.  For example, 31 thousand British citizens have become German citizens.  Because of the rules after Brexit, British people could not work or offer services in that country.  So many professionals have moved with their families.
Refugees – that issue is not solved and is getting worse in some places.  The camps in southern Italy are overcrowded and the heat is intense at this time of year.  More than 13 thousand migrants have crossed the sea in small boats this year.  Now local people are upset because tourist have not been coming due to the virus and so they are angry that nothing is being done to move the migrants away from the camps.  Many refugees are just disappearing even though they are supposed to be in quarantine.  The problems are also in Greece where there are large camps.
