“As of tomorrow (December 15) all the municipalities of the provinces of Foggia and Bat in the yellow zone.” This was announced by the governor of Puglia, Michele Emiliano, specifying that there are “final controls on Gravina and Altamura.”

“According to the controls carried out by the Health Department of the Puglia region in the last week of monitoring – he explains – the orange zone will not be extended in the municipalities of the Bat and Foggia provinces that were the subject of an ordinance last week, and therefore from tomorrow they will fall into the yellow zone like the whole of Puglia. We are checking with the mayors of Gravina and Altamura the data of these municipalities of the Metropolitan City of Bari to decide whether to expand or not “.

“Our region, which has never entered the red zone, was hit by the second wave later than other regions, but with very high figures equivalent to 67 thousand infections compared to only 5 thousand from the first wave. Today we can say that the signs of improvements that had already led the Ministry of Health and the ISS to reclassify all of Puglia in the yellow zone last week, and which were confirmed with the latest follow-up report, are gradually consolidating and are now affecting to all the provinces. “

“Infections are reduced and hospitalizations are reduced and this is thanks to compliance with restrictive measures, despite the sacrifices that have involved: we will closely monitor the situation, municipality by municipality, hospital by hospital, as we have always done, to be prepared to intervene if the situation changes. “

However, this is a delicate moment: if we want the contagion curve to continue falling and, above all, if we want it not to rise again, the behaviors that each of us will maintain in the coming days are decisive ”, he points out. “We must keep our guard up, respect preventive measures in each place, at work, in free time, at home. Only then can we avoid going back to the limitations of recent weeks, or even to stricter measures, which for many are devastating. productive categories, and to protect ourselves and the most fragile people we love. “
