REUTERS: Manchester City will wear special shirts to promote the launch of a COVID-19 relief fund set up by parent company City Football Group (CFG) when they resume their Premier League season against Arsenal on Wednesday. City's shirt will have a 'Cityzens Giving for Recovery' campaign logo instead of their usual partners Etihad Airways, who have donated the branding space to kickstart the initiative set up to help communities get back on their feet. CFG, which also owns eight other football clubs around the world, has donated almost 1 million pounds (US$1.3 million) to the global COVID-19 emergency response.

WASHINGTON: New York Mayor Bill de Blasio pleaded for help from the federal government and from private citizens to fight the coronavirus outbreak as the US Federal Reserve launched an extraordinary array of initiatives to mitigate the pandemic's economic impact.
