China tries to get back to work amid the Coronavirus outbreak. Numerous major factories in China reopen, including plants belonging to BYD, Tesla, Daimler and Ford. The iPhone supplier Foxconn also gets the green light to restart work at a key plant but Apple and Alibaba opt to keep their facilities shut. The death toll from the virus surpasses 900, following its biggest daily increase yesterday, with more than 40,000 cases confirmed globally. Asian stock markets start the week in mild negative territory. In Germany, Daimler is reportedly planning on cutting up to 15,000 jobs which could save the luxury car and truck maker up to €1.4bn a year by 2022. And we are live in Dublin where the nationalist Sinn Féin party is poised to enter government after winning its highest ever number of first preference votes in the Irish general election.
