A small crack begins to appear, a small flame at the end of the tunnel. And this little light comes from the southernmost part of the boot, from Reggio Calabria. At the GOM, the Great Metropolitan Hospital, in fact, zero new infections were recorded for six consecutive days. And never as in this period the 0 is the number that we all yearn for, to which we all aim, that we hope to see throughout Italy.
In our hearts, all of us Italians await six in the afternoon in the hope of hearing these very words at the national level "Today there have been zero new infections". And while waiting for this communication, we comfort ourselves with the news coming from the city of the Strait.
