Tuscany could still be orange. A fear is brewing on the eve of the meeting of the Government’s technical-scientific committee that, tomorrow, will decide on the possible transition from one color to another in some regions of Italy, which could benefit, as of Sunday, December 13, from measures less restrictive anti Covid. In the batch of candidates to move from the orange to the yellow zone, in addition to Lombardy (the clarity of whose data has led President Attilio Fontana to make the announcement) could be Piedmont, Campania and, in fact, Tuscany. But from what was leaked on the day, there is no optimism about the possibility. A change to yellow would guarantee, among other flexibilities, the option of leaving the regional borders (to go to the other yellow areas) without self-certifications, the possibility that bars, pubs, restaurants reopen to the public, at least until 6:00 p.m. .
And the trade association Confcommercio intervenes on the possibility of staying another whole weekend in orange. “We have been facing two dramatic emergencies for months, first health, but also economic. That those who govern us do not care enough “, says the director of Confcommercio Toscana Franco Marinoni.
“It is imperative not to miss another weekend before Christmas. There is a lot of expectation, the transition to the yellow zone, like almost all other regions, is a duty that the government insists on not assuming. Although it is absolutely compatible with the data registered at the health level “. Marinoni then talks about “incomprehensible technicalities that bring citizens and companies to their knees. The Tuscany Region is committed to our side but, it is evident, it is not capable of obtaining the desired results”.

Marinoni then enters into the merits of the possibility of remaining in the orange zone, which would be charged to the buffer / positive ratio.
“It is truly inexplicable that regions much worse than us, such as Lombardy or Veneto, are yellow while we remain in the orange band. Unacceptable the motivation that we make some swabs. But what should we do, if there are few symptoms and little demand, go after people to force them to do unnecessary swabs, only to demonstrate a low incidence of swabs and positive subjects? ”.
Ascom, via Marinoni, then adds: “Further delays beyond this weekend are unacceptable, as they would sink our business by preventing them, for example, from arranging reservations for Christmas dinners. A closing of the year that the restoration does not really deserve, for what it has given and is giving to our territory in terms of professionalism, services, hospitality, and that will affect the entire commercial system: fewer opportunities for public establishments mean fewer opportunities for the entire distribution network “.
