BARI – «After 10 at night there is little movement in the cities, to have any effect the curfew would have advanced at least at 9 at night. Such a measure cannot be based on scientific data, I think this measure has more communicative power. The message is that after finishing work you have to go home. If the infections go down thanks to this Dpcm we will see it in 10 days “: said the health counselor of the Puglia Region, Pierluigi Lopalco, commenting on the new Dpcm.

The second wave of Covid infections could “last a couple of months, we hope it will go downhill by Christmas,” the epidemiologist added. When asked if families will be able to get together at Christmas, Lopalco advised no more than “6-7 people.”

“If there is a confinement in Lombardy, for example, the students from the south who live there and want to go home, according to the new Dpcm, can do so. So there is no reason to attack the trains ”: the Councilor for Health also added.

Speaking of the situation in his region, Lopalco explained that “in Puglia we will probably be in the middle color, with the closing of bars and restaurants. But I don’t know what data the ministerial cabin will take to decide. “In Puglia – he specified – we currently have the RT at 1.5”.

«The full text arrived a few minutes ago, but we still don’t know the essence of the matter: what ‘color’ will Puglia be. But I think we will be in the middle color, a ‘light’ orange. We are all anxiously waiting. The epidemiologist and health counselor of the Puglia region, Pier Luigi Lopalco, tells Rai Radio1, guest of Un Giorno da Pecora. “The RT – he adds – is around 1.5, but it refers to last week, we usually check it on Thursdays.” If this decree reduces infections «it will take 10/15 days, observe, but I think it will be definitive, we will follow it until the end of the second wave. I hope that at Christmas we are in the relegation phase. I see a Christmas with 20 people at the table as difficult – he concluded – our sociality must be enclosed in a sphere of 6-7 people ».

SCHOOLS – “We remain convinced that schools are a very strong engine for the circulation of the virus, it must also be said that if there is a closure, then indeed within schools the chances of contagion are reduced a bit.”

Now, however, “we must reopen the schools” provided for in the new Dpcm “that deprives the Regions of the power to extend the restrictive measures”: said the Health Councilor of the Puglia Region, Pierluigi Lopalco.

In Puglia, in accordance with the provisions of a regional ordinance, all schools of all types and levels have been closed for a week, with the exception of those for children.
