30 new cases today in Tuscany from Covid, Rossi: “We are far from zero infection”

“These are not the peaks of the past few months, but the danger should not be underestimated: caution and gradual reopening are necessary.”

“We need prudence and gradualness in reopening, also so as not to give the impression of a ‘free everyone’ which can be very harmful. We need responsible behavior on the part of all Tuscan citizens. Finally, it is necessary for the health system to act quickly to “limit fires” and therefore to identify new infections, isolate them, trace your contacts’ map. These are the words of the president of the Tuscany region, Enrico Rossi, during today’s session of the regional council in view of the reopening on May 18 and the strategies to adopt: “I still need to understand what the national government has decided” , added Rossi, because there are no guidelines on everything and there is no bill that specifies how Tuscany is in the ranking of regions that may or may not reopen and what are the possibilities offered to me. “Commenting on the data from new infections, today 30, while yesterday they were 27 and three days ago 13, the governor said: “These are not the peaks of the last months, but 30 cases are not few, we are far from zero infection, so there is no need to underestimate danger. To keep the situation under control, Tuscan citizens must behave appropriately, which the vast majority have done so far. I don’t think the virus has weakened. it spreads less because by staying at home we have reduced the possibility of circulating it. Instead, I’d like some amazing reasoning. We are in contact with all trade associations and auditors. There is great concern on the part of restaurants and bars regarding national guidelines, we would like to discuss the possibility of finding spaces outside and multiplying the tables outside. As for the beaches, the reactions of the categories to the national lines have been very difficult and we are trying to make and evaluate proposals to allow a safe restart. When asked if everything needs to be reopened, I answer yes, but finding a way to live with Covid and keep the infections under control, because having to return would be extremely negative, even for the economy. The regions have received an important responsibility. I appreciate the efforts of the Regional Council and the fact that it has produced unitary documents, it is necessary to think clearly without being overwhelmed by enthusiasm or invoking unnecessary resignations. “
