No closing of bars, restaurants and discos and no time restrictions From the Palazzo Chigi they deny the indiscretions taken up in recent days by the press according to which the new Dpcm that arrives this week would have included restrictions on the hours of bars and restaurants, but also the closure of some activities, as a measure to contrast the spread of coronavirus infections. In any case, the new Presidential Decree of the Council of Ministers should arrive next Thursday. Although new cases of coronavirus continue to increase in our country, with figures increasingly similar to those of the most critical phases of the emergency, the government is evaluating more restrictive measures to combat the epidemic.

However, to curb the contagion curve, there will be no anticipated closures of bars and restaurants. However, the ban on gathering outside the premises will remain in effect. The most relevant novelty contained in the new Dpcm will be that of the masks, which must also be worn outdoors, as is already the case in some territories. In fact, in Sicily, Lazio, Campania and Calabria, the protection device must also be used on the street and not only in indoor public places. In Piedmont, on the other hand, it must be used near schools, in parking lots and in all waiting areas, on and off public school transportation. In general, for those who do not respect the new regulations, decidedly high penalties are foreseen, which could range between 400 and 3,000 euros.

Tomorrow the new measures will be illustrated by the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, in Parliament. The government representative will also report on the extension of the state of emergency until next January 31, 2021 ”.We have made an update on this point and we agreed that in the state of the situation, which requires the utmost attention, we will go to Parliament to reasonably propose the extension of the state of emergency until the end of January.”, Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte had already confirmed in recent days.
