Germany's Social-Distancing Measures Are Having An Effect

According to the latest Johns Hopkins University data reported by Worldometer, 4,031 new cases were confirmed on April 05, yet another consecutive decline. Despite the downward trend, German authorities have urged caution, stressing that a reliable picture will only emerge after Easter.
