Time for a haircut? Iceland to begin lifting lockdown in May

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Iceland plans to ease some of its coronavirus lockdown restrictions by allowing hair salons, museums and schools to reopen in early May, but its government said night clubs, gyms, bars and swimming pools will remain closed.

Measures such as a two-meter social distancing rule would remain in place, while the limit on large gatherings would be loosened from 20 to 50 people on May 4, the Atlantic island's government said in a statement on Tuesday.
