Is now a good time to get pregnant? As the pandemic rages, many are saying ‘no’
When the pandemic hit and everyone was sent home, people began joking about a baby boom. But half a year into this thing, with no end in sight, no one is in a jokey mood, and a significant percentage of would-be parents are deciding they don’t want to bring a new soul into this mess.

As COVID-19 hit Belgium, many elderly were left to die
A staff member helped a woman at the Christalain home. Owners say hospitals refused to take their sick patients.
BY MATINA STEVIS-GRIDNEFF, MATT APUZZO AND MONIKA PRONCZUK

BEIRUT, LEBANON - AUGUST 08: Black smoke and tear gas darkens the evening sky during a protest at Martyrs Square on August 8, 2020 in Beirut, Lebanon.
