Covid emergency: contagions always calmed but there is great expectation for the new restrictions that should transform all of Italy into a single red zone. In fact, in this regard, a meeting of the Council of Ministers is scheduled for tomorrow at 18 pm. The discussion of the new anti-contagion provisions could also be on the table even if "a series of measures will already be approved in Unified Conference and State-Regions Conference.
Furthermore, between Friday and Saturday there will certainly be the Council of Ministers “to launch the new ones anti-Covid measures". Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health announces that today they have been registered 18.236 new positive cases (yesterday 15.572); the new deaths are 683 (yesterday 680). The discharged healed today are 27.913 (yesterday 34.495); overall the current positives are 635.343 (yesterday 645.706).
Italy: one big red zone
In view of the Christmas holidays, just as the country was painfully and slowly turning yellow, the government is therefore evaluating the hypothesis of a 'single-color' 'boot'. A macro-area in which all the Regions would fall within the red or at most orange band.
Measures to avoid the increase in infections that the Ministry of Health, through the director general for prevention Gianni Rezza, he defined still too high. The number of deaths is still high; just as the occupation of intensive care and the medical area is still a cause for concern. Without restrictive measures, therefore, we would arrive at a lockdown generalized.
