NEW YORK (AP) — A staggering 16.8 million Americans have lost their jobs in just three weeks in a measure of how fast the coronavirus has brought world economies to their knees. Meanwhile, religious leaders around the globe are urging people to celebrate Good Friday and Easter from the safety of their homes. Politicians and public health officials warn that the hard-won gains against the scourge must not be jeopardized by relaxing social distancing over the holiday weekend. In Europe, authorities set up roadblocks.
