Spain’s army expects there to be two more outbreaks of the new coronavirus, according to an internal report seen by The Associated Press.
The army report predicts “two more waves of the epidemic” and that Spain will take “between a year and a year-and-a-half to return to normality.”
The document was published by Spanish newspaper ABC on Friday and later confirmed as authentic by the AP.
“There will be a second wave of COVID-19” in the autumn or winter the army report said, adding that it will be less serious than the initial outbreak due to higher immunity in the population and better preparations.
