You're reading: No Spring Break

Editor’s Note: As the coronavirus pandemic sweeps parts of the world, killing more than 50,000 people globally and at least 23 in Ukraine, the Kyiv Post’s April 3, 2020, edition is devoted mainly to COVID-19, including the government’s attempts to combat its spread, the medical system’s testing and response capabilities, the economic fallout and the human cost. The Kyiv Post suspended its print edition on March 27, 2020, and will return to print after the Ukrainian government lifts restrictions that have curtailed movement and closed businesses.
