How much is one trillion?  It is 1,000, 000, 000, 000.  The USA has just borrowed 3 trillion dollars to pay for the virus.  Some time they have to pay this back.  If you earn £20,000  per year, you would need to work for 100,000 years to pay the three trillion that USA has borrowed.  It is crazy.
But now 30 million people are unemployed in the USA now.  That is even more crazy.
Bad in USA.  One security guard in store told a woman to wear a mask.  Had an argument.  Woman went away came back with husband and friend and they shot and killed the security guard.
In France, doctor did test on old cases.  Found that one person in France had the virus in December … not travelled from China.  Person survived but we don’t know how he got the virus.  Maybe his wife got it working at the airport.
Hairdressers open in Germany but special rules
No waiting area, no magazines, no dry cuts, and face masks for both customer and hairdresser.  1.5m (4.9ft) distance between customers and no blow-dry.  Gloves must be worn until hair is washed but can be removed for the cut itself.  No talking face to face, any communication about cut or colour must be done via the mirror and kept to a minimum.
