The president of the European Parliament David Sassoli said there have been hundreds of Covid-19 cases at the European Parliament. "Hundreds of cases of Covid have been detected in the parliament in recent weeks," he said on Wednesday. Sassoli made the comments following complaints that MEPs were no longer able to get their daily allowance of €323 after the parliament went into partial shutdown for health reasons.
