The Region with the highest daily number of cases is Lombardy (257), followed by Veneto (173), Emilia-Romagna (152), Lazio (148) and Tuscany (147). There are no regions without infections in the last 24 hours. There are currently 175 patients in intensive care throughout Italy, while hospitalizations in other Covid departments are 1,849 (+13 compared to yesterday). The cures are a total of 212,432,547 more in the last 24 hours.
In Lombardy 257 infections Lombardy continues to be the Region with the most cases (257) in the last 24 hours, of which 33 “weakly positive” and 12 after serological tests. The swabs performed were 17,986. The number of hospitalized patients both in intensive care: 27 (-3) and in ward 246 (-10) is decreasing. There are 4 deaths in the Region for a total of 16,896.

Iss, 2,280 active outbreaks in Italy, 691 new – “During the follow-up week, a total of 2,280 active outbreaks were reported, of which 691 new ones (the adopted definition of outbreak foresees the identification of 2 or more positive cases linked to each other), both increasing for the sixth consecutive week (in the previous week of 1,799 active outbreaks had been reported, of which 649 new). This implies a growing commitment of the local services in the activities of searching for contacts that so far have managed to contain the local transmission of the virus “.
Iss report, Rt index at 1.14 – According to experts, “as of June, probably due to the reopening of May 4 and 18 and June 3, a slight but sustained increase in the national transmission index (Rt) was noted at the national level, which exceeded the threshold of 1 around August 16, 2020. In the period from August 20 to September 2, 2020, the TR calculated on symptomatic cases is equal to 1.14 “. “However, the national transmission index should be interpreted with caution at this particular moment of the epidemic. In fact, the Rt calculated on symptomatic cases, although it remains the most reliable indicator at the regional level and comparable in time to monitor the transmissibility, it could slightly underestimate the real transmission of the virus at the national level. Therefore, the national RT must always be interpreted taking into account the incidence data “, he specifies.
Trento, Sardinia and Puglia with higher Rt values – There are 5 regions plus the autonomous province of Trento that exceed the threshold of 1 for the transmissibility index, as indicated in the latest monitoring by the Ministry of Health and the ISS. Trento registers the highest value with 1.58, followed by Sardinia with 1.41, Puglia 1.21, Liguria with 1.13 and Friuli and Abruzzo both with 1.02. The lowest value is recorded in Molise (0.27), followed by Lazio with 0.52. Last week there were four regions beyond the value above 1, Abruzzo, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Puglia and Tuscany.
Problem: Increase in new cases for the sixth week in a row – New cases reported in Italy for the sixth consecutive week are increasing with a cumulative incidence in the last 14 days (period 24 / 8-6 / 9) of 27.89 per 100 thousand inhabitants, an increase compared to the period of July 6 to 19. Most of the cases continue to be contracted in the national territory (15% of the new cases diagnosed in the follow-up week are imported from a foreign country). In particular, there is a not inconsiderable percentage of imported cases from other regions and provinces (11.1% in the current week, down from the previous week).
Problem: “Signs of greater transmission in the family” – “At present there are indications of greater transmission in the national territory in the home / family with circulation also in people with more advanced age”. It can be read in the coronavirus report of the Ministry of Health and the Higher Institute of Health. “The transmission dynamics – it is emphasized – continues to be extremely fluid: the effects of outbreaks associated with recreational activities are still being observed both in the national territory and abroad, already observed in previous weeks, with a greater increase in family transmission / domestic “.
Admission fees and intensive care rooms – “Compared with the previous two weeks of follow-up (from August 17 to 30, 2020), an increase in the occupancy rate of dedicated beds is observed both in the medical area and in intensive care in almost all regions. nationally, the employment rate in the medical area increased from 1 to 2% while the employment rate in intensive care from 2% to 3%, with values higher than 5% for some regions. signs of overload of health care services, the observed trend could be reflected in a short time in a greater commitment ”, read in the report.
