ROME, May 4 (MENA) - Italy has eased its movement restrictions after a two-month lockdown in the face of the coronavirus pandemic, reported Euro News Monday.

Around 4.4 million people will return to work on Monday, after being confined to their homes since early March.

Italy was the first European country to have a serious outbreak of COVID-19. There have been more than 28,000 deaths in the country and 210,000 people have tested positive for coronavirus.

The country has seen a decrease in the daily death toll and hospitalizations with 174 people dying on Sunday.

Those who have coronavirus symptoms or a fever of more than 37.5 degrees Celsius must stay at home as officials continue to trace potential cases and contacts.
