Coronavirus: Germany record highest cases in months - BBC News
As Europe emerges from lockdown, Germany, Spain and Italy see spikes in cases of the virus.
This isn't a 'second wave' - we're still in the first

Whenever there is a jump in cases, it does not take long for someone to start talking about a second wave. But the truth is we are still in the first wave in Europe. The wave is being suppressed, but it is still there. Where we see cases rising, it is more a case that the defences are being breached. What gets less attention is the fact that it is falling in some places too – Sweden and Portugal are both examples of this over the past month or so. It is also important to consider the context of the rise. Has it risen to a high level or just a higher level from a low base? And to what extent are the rises being caused by more testing? The more you look, the more you find. Certainly the numbers being tested is rising in many countries and that is certainly a factor. It means the rises seen in Germany, Italy and the UK for example are less concerning than those seen in Spain, France and Croatia. It is a very mixed picture across Europe, reflecting the fact countries are just at different points of the first wave or having varying degrees of success in keeping it at bay.
