British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Sunday that"things could have gone either way" in his struggle against coronavirus in a video recorded after he left hospital following intensive care treatment.
Although health chiefs say the pandemic has peaked, they have urged the population to strictly follow a national lockdown which was put in place on March 14 in order to reduce the spread of the virus. President Donald Trump had earlier wanted the world's largest economy to be "raring to go" by Sunday, but most of the country remained at a standstill and churches took Easter celebrations online to halt the spread of the virus that has killed more than 20 000 people in the US.
