'... The good news is that simply pausing for a moment to reflect was all it took to filter out a lot of the misinformation. It doesn’t take much; we can all do it. All we need to do is acquire the habit of stopping to think.' https://t.co/qb6O6Yz3kV

Spain is to release everyone held in its seven immigration detention centres. Grounds include health (difficulty in maintaining social distancing) and difficulty in deporting people due to the closure of borders (there's a 60-day time limit on detention).
