		</div><p>The number of coronavirus cases in the United States has passed a million, accounting for nearly a third of the total cases worldwide.</p>
<p>The figures, from tracking at Johns Hopkins University, show a worldwide death toll of more than 210,000, though the real numbers are likely to be higher owing to limited testing and differences in counting deaths.</p>
<p>States are beginning to lift their restrictions as the death toll from Covid-19 in the US surpasses the 58,220 service personnel killed in Vietnam.</p>
<p>Similarly, countries in Europe are beginning to loosen their lockdown restrictions, and France, Spain and Greece are among the latest to put forward roadmaps for restarting their economies.</p>
<p>But uncertainty about what people should do to protect their health after they emerge from lockdown remains.</p>
<p>In the US, this was highlighted in Georgia after businesses such as barber shops and tattoo parlours were given the go-ahead to reopen.</p>
<p>Savannah Mayor Van Johnson said people could find the changes perplexing, adding: <em>“In reality we’re under a stay-at-home order until April 30.</em></p>
<p><em>“Yet you can go get your nails done, you can go get a tattoo, you can go to movie theatres, you can go to bowling alleys. It’s those kinds of things that leave people confused.”</em></p>
<p>Mixed messages are also coming from the US Congress.</p>
<p>The House is scrambling for ways for members to work from home after a revolt over convening during the pandemic, and said they would not return to the Capitol on Monday. The smaller Senate, however, plans to convene there.</p>
<p>The decisions people make are likely to vary widely depending on where they live, and how close that puts them to known virus clusters.</p>
<p>Elsewhere around the world, New Zealand reported just three new infections on Tuesday as the government loosened its lockdown.</p>
<p>Surfers hit the waves at dawn, builders returned to construction sites and baristas fired up espresso machines.</p>
<p>And in Australia, hundreds returned to Sydney’s Bondi Beach, though it was open only during daylight hours and social distancing was mandatory.</p>
<p>Emily Landon, who leads infection control at the University of Chicago Medical Centre, said: <em>“I think everyone still needs to use their judgment. I’m not having a book club in my house. I’m going to my doctor for an allergy shot because that’s safe to do.</em></p>
<p><em>“You can try and make it political, make it about freedom, but it’s a virus. It’s biology. Biology doesn’t negotiate.”</em></p>
