Coronavirus, the CTS doubts the effectiveness of the limits for dinners and banquets. It’s okay for the government to squeeze the clubs, nightlife, and soccer

On the one hand, there are restrictions on bars and restaurants, a ban on drinking alcohol in front of clubs and a stop for amateur sports such as football and the basket, all the occasions that for the Scientific Technical Committee are ad very high risk of contagion. On the other hand, precautionary measures such as the recommendation on the maximum number of guests at home and the limit to 30 guests for weddings and christenings: in this case, scientists argue that there is no “scientific evidence” for its effectiveness. To inform is the Corriere della Sera, according to which the team of experts led by Agostino Miozzo did not fully share the new rules contained in the Prime Minister’s Decree Giuseppe Conte at night between Monday 12 and Tuesday 13 October.

“Regarding the proposed limitation to participation in receptions connected to civil ceremonies and religious up to a maximum of 30 people, the CTS, observing the current lack of scientific evidence, takes note of the number indicated in the Dpcm scheme “, reads the document released by the newspaper via Solferino. However, scientists emphasize that the measure adopted by the government in any case “is based on the principle of utmost caution in order to contain the Sars-Cov-2 contagion with full compliance with precautionary measures and strict compliance with current procedures and regulations ”. The same for the recommendation of not receiving at home more than 6 people, a measure that ministers hope me Franceschini they would have liked it even tighter. The CTS recalls that the “inspiring principle” of executive elections always “is based on the utmost caution regarding the limitation of meetings in closed places“A way not to discredit Palazzo Chigi’s work, since the scientists who are part of the Committee provide advice, but then it is always political to make the final decisions (more or less strict depending on the situation).

Also on the issue of transport in recent months there has been a first division: experts had repeatedly underlined the risk of spreading the virus on public transport, calling for it to remain 50% of maximum occupancy. Instead, the regions and the government have increased it to 80%, in order to guarantee the continuity of the public service for students back to school and for those who have to go to work. And now, with the rise in the epidemic curve, the CTS has once again emphasized the “very serious criticalityLinked to the absence of controls on board the vehicles and the need to intervene as soon as possible to contain the contagion. On the other hand, the decision to close bars and restaurants at midnight, prohibit take-out food and drinks after 9:00 p.m. and above all avoid parking in front of clubs was fully approved.

Supports ilfattoquotidiano.it: I never eat right now
we need you.

In these weeks of pandemic, journalists, if we do our work conscientiously, we carry out a public service. Also for this reason, every day here at ilfattoquotidiano.it we are proud to offer hundreds of new content for free to all citizens: news, exclusive insights, expert interviews, surveys, videos and much more. All this work, however, comes at great financial cost. Advertising, at a time when the economy is stagnant, offers limited income. Not in line with the access boom. That is why I ask those who read these lines to support us. Give us a minimum contribution, equal to the price of a cappuccino per week, which is essential for our work.

THANKS FOR READING NOW XX ITEMS THIS MONTH.

But now we are the ones who need you. Because our work has a cost. We are proud to be able to offer hundreds of new content to all citizens for free every day. But advertising, at a time when the economy is stagnant, offers limited revenue. Not in line with the boom in access to ilfattoquotidiano.it. That is why I ask you to support us, with a minimum contribution, equal to the price of one cappuccino per week. A small but fundamental sum for our work. Give us a hand!
