Today’s main news:
- As of today, Abruzzo also leaves the red zone, autonomously decided the president of the region Marco Marsilio, who signed an order without waiting for the decision of the Ministry of Health. No region, therefore, is more in the red zone, after yesterday Campania, Valle d’Aosta, Tuscany and the autonomous province of Bolzano went to the orange zone by order of the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza. Marsilio commented on his decision on Facebook, explaining that “the monitoring of the weekend provided more comforting data, of which the regional Scientific Technical Committee also took note. There has not been such a low number of new positives since October 23. Today the stores have reopened and the second and third graders will return to school on Wednesday.
- The Istituto Superiore di Sanità has updated the report on the characteristics of deceased patients with positive coronavirus. In the first wave, almost half were in Lombardy, 16,360 out of 34,360, while in the second the deaths increased in the south: in Campania there were 8.3% of deaths between October and December, in Sicily on 6, 2 percent, 4.8 percent in Puglia, 7.9 percent in Lazio. The average age of deaths from Covid-19 disease is 80 years, and 96.9 percent already suffered from other diseases.
- The ISTAT data does not say how many official deaths were caused by Covid-19, but it does record all the people who died in Italy from all causes. If we compare the number of deaths this year with the average of the previous five years, we can understand what the overmortality was, that is, how many more people died than in the past. Across Italy, 527,888 people died between January and September 30, compared to 484,435 recorded on average between 2015 and 2019.
