A rough start for European stocks as jitters surrounding the virus situation are resurfacing amid a surge in cases and possibly lockdown measures to follow as a result.
The stimulus stalemate in Washington and further US-China tensions are also not helping with the mood to start the session. S&P 500 futures are seen down by ~1.0%.
