As European countries mull over how to ease restrictions, there is one country which is slowly lifting what's been described as the strictest lockdown in the bloc.
With 5.5 million people, Slovakia has a population size similar to Ireland but it has a different pandemic story. The landlocked country stands out as keeping its Covid-19 death toll low with 18 fatalities and over 1,300 cases.
Before it even confirmed a coronavirus case, it took tough measures earlier than any other country after Italy. With a new crisis team at the healthy ministry established, temperature screenings at airports were introduced at the end of February.
