We could experience a Christmas in red, not thought of as a typical color of vacation season, but more like a total closure. Between open yes and open no, the Scientific Technical Committee seems to have called for a red zone throughout Italy for the Christmas holidays, including the Befana. The premier does not seem so much of the idea, on the one hand he is worried about the protests he will face, on the other the mental health of the population, already well proven. It’s not hard to hear from people who say they are more stressed by this tug of war than Covid. But now there is little time to decide what to prevent and what to allow during the holidays.
A Christmas that runs the risk of being red
As reported by Il Messaggero, there are several hypotheses on the bench. Penalty takers encourage the closure of all holidays and the eve, with the ban on leaving the house, with ministers Speranza, Boccia and Franceschini in the front line. Or a red zone for all of Italy. But always for 12 days the closing would be: December 19-20 and 24-27, December 31-January 3, January 5-6. With the aim of avoiding both the gatherings in the commercial streets and shops of the last weekend before Christmas, as well as the risk of family reunions between non-cohabitants. the curfew it could be brought forward at 8 pm or even 6 pm The options are a red zone or a national closure from December 23 or 24 until Befana inclusive. If you win the red zone, you will lose the shops and restaurants, while in case of closure there will be the obligation to stay inside. The first hypothesis is more likely, but we can never say. Also because Prime Minister Conte would not really have the idea of shutting everything down, for the holiday period he would prefer an orange zone, also backed by the Bellanova of Italy alive. Thus, at least the stores and the population would breathe a sigh of relief. Losing only, so to speak, bars and restaurants.
This coming weekend is considered the riskiest because it is the last to go shopping for gifts. Tonight, or tomorrow at the latest, we will know what will be decided. The nightmare of the confinement and, therefore, of the prohibition to leave the house, is still there. And Minister Boccia would be satisfied: “The new restrictions will be aimed at limiting or eliminating family gatherings.”. Yesterday morning, the summit between Conte, the CTS technicians led by Agostino Miozzo, the heads of delegation Franceschini, Speranza, Bonafede, Bellanova and the ministers Boccia and Lamorgese, lasted for about 4 hours.
A summit very tormented, according to some present, of a government torn apart. Someone else added: “More than a storm we can talk about a storm …”.
Field deployments
There are two sides: on the one hand Conte and Bellanova for an orange zone, on the other Speranza, Boccia and Franceschini for the German-inspired lock. In the middle between the two Bonafede fires that would point to a middle ground. According to the penalty takers, “What happened over the weekend, with the busy shopping streets, the crowds in front of the shops, the bars full of people for an aperitif is unacceptable. If we do not decide on strong measures, in January we will find hospitals collapsing again and thousands of deaths. And if it is true that now the contagion data is lower, the curve is still worrying. There third wave in Europe and in the world it is already in things: in addition to Germany, the Netherlands will also enter a blockade, like London and New York. We cannot remain inert “. But Conte wanted to emphasize that the named countries had never adopted restrictive measures, while Italy did. “In addition, we meet citizens who have expectations for Christmas. If we push too hard, we provoke social protests. I fear for the psychological force of the country. Not to mention that if we close, another very onerous decree with new soft drinks will be needed “ continuous.
Meanwhile, Bellanova accused the premier of having launched cashback just at Christmas, going to encourage purchases, confident that there will be a refund for the use of electronic money. Perhaps it would have been better to postpone the plan until after the holidays. After asking the CTS to make proposals, the summit was postponed until today, perhaps also to safeguard the psychological health of the Count himself. But today the game reopens and the teams on the field do not seem exactly friendly.
