“The epidemiological situation continues to see an upturn in the spread of the virus, with figures that every day and in a very short time reach levels difficult to find in the past – say the president of the Region, Stefano Bonaccini, and the regional policy advisor for health, Raffaele Donini-. Quick decisions are needed to respond blow by blow to the pandemic that changes due to new variants. Therefore, even with the confirmation today of Emilia-Romagna in the orange zone by the Government, however, based on data dating back to last week, compared to what we continue to register here today, and monitored daily, due to the transmissibility of the virus to hospitalizations, and based on the Ausl Romagna indications, we extend the red zone already in force in the provinces of Modena and Bologna to the municipalities of the provinces of Ravenna, Forlì -Cesena and Rimini, with the del Reggiano already in dark orange.
