Bars and restaurants closed, like most stores. Prohibition to leave home and the municipality where you live, except for work and emergency reasons. Starting Friday in Lombardy, most of the restrictions already seen and experienced last spring will go back into effect.
The new blockade for our region had been in the air for weeks, but the official announcement only came on Wednesday afternoon, when Prime Minister Conte made official his last Dpcm – in force until December 3 – dividing Italy. in three major risk areas: yellow, orange and red.
The entire Region is a red zone: not only Milan, Monza and Varese, that is, the Lombard provinces that have registered the highest number of infections for weeks, but also Bresciano is considered a high-risk territory according to the 21 indicators released by the technical-scientific committee and must endure the most severe limitations to bend the curve of infections and reduce the pressure on hospitals.
But how long will the new blockade last? At least for the next 14 days. But it is always possible to change the “color” and the risk zone, thus moving to lighter restrictions. To explain it is Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte himself in his live broadcast.
How does your risk zone change?
“If, after the adoption of these restrictive measures, a region falls back into stable conditions for no less than 14 days, in a lower-risk condition, it can subsequently be subjected to a regime of less restrictive measures.”
Basically, it takes 14 consecutive days of “positive” data, with all odds that the contagion slows down and the pressure on hospitals diminishes, for Lombardy to move into the orange band.
Who decides the steps
However, it is clear that the transition to an area of lower risk for our region will not occur so soon: the new blockade will begin on Friday, November 6, and the effects of the measures will certainly not be immediate. Therefore, the data for the coming weeks will be decisive.
To decide the change will be – Conte explained – “future ordinances of the health ministry that will not be arbitrary or discretionary, as was not the one that was just issued, because they will incorporate the result of the periodic monitoring carried out jointly by the representatives of the institute “. superior of health, of the ministry of health and by representatives of the regions “.
