We start the year in Red zone which essentially means three things. First: bars and restaurants are closed even if they can work take out and also stores are closed except for pharmacies, grocery stores and kiosks. Second: we cannot leave our Region, with the exception of those who live in small municipalities close to the regional borders that can be crossed in a maximum radius of 30 kilometers. Third: we must always carry self-certification with us.
It is a very faded red. We can go to the second home (always in the regional context), we can go (in two more children under 14 years of age) to look for friends and family even outside the municipality of residence, we can go to help non-self-sufficient relatives.
The untouchable rights
We always remember that we reserve the right to move (with self-certification) for work, health or force majeure reasons. As well as we maintain the right to return to our house of residence or domicile always and in any case with the exception of the curfew hours from 22 to 5 hours.
These are all rules that will apply to today and tomorrow and then for January 5 and 6. the January 4thOn Monday, we will go down to the orange alert level for 24 hours. Not much will change, essentially stores will be able to open for 24 hours.
Goodbye to regional borders
Immediately after the Epiphany, from Thursday January 7th, all of Italy should go back to yellow zone. This will mean that once again we will be able to move freely between regions, always respecting the total stoppage hours, that is, the curfew from 22 to 5 hours.
The stops that will remain
The yellow band does not mean that everyone is free. Very strong restrictions will be maintained such as curfews, the closure of restaurants and bars at night (takeout until 10pm), the absolute prohibition of private parties. The fines start at 400 euros and for those who leave home knowing that they are positive, the criminal trial is triggered.
However, the real problem will be the progress of the epidemic. If the daily infections do not decrease there is a great risk also because the vaccination campaign must absolutely begin and therefore the total number of infected people must be reduced at all costs, which today are almost 600,000 throughout Italy. The massive distribution of vaccines puts many people back on the move, starting with the least young and therefore most at risk, so it is essential to control the circulation of the virus. We’ll see what the government decides to do by the end of next week, probably Sunday January 9, according to the indications of the Scientific Technical Committee, but it is possible that for some Regions the days in the yellow band are very few.
, and there are some basic rules to observe for the next few days: the government advises everyone to stay home and see few people, but if they want to go out to see friends and family they can do so while respecting common sense a bit. The logic of the exceptions to the confinement is clear: unfortunately we arrive at Christmas with many infections, more than 10,000 a day more and with 600,000 Italians suffering from Covid-19, and we run the risk of a third wave in January. We must try to avoid it both for the health of all and to prevent widespread impoverishment by blocking the economy.
Christmas decree, last day of shopping: starting tomorrow “the red zone”. Limitations and many exceptions
But let’s see the details of the Christmas rules. Which are essentially eight.
1) Until January 6 inclusive, you can go to second homes as long as they are in your region. You can move with the cohabiting family unit and carry the self-certification;
2) You can leave your municipality (but not the region) every day, including the red ones, to visit family and friends. It can be done once a day and in two partners, possibly with children under 14 years of age. Self-certification should always be carried;
3) Those who live in municipalities with less than 5,000 inhabitants can leave the municipality and the Shire but within a radius of 30 kilometers. You cannot go to the provincial capitals. You must have self-certification.
4) You always have the right to return to your residence or domicile, on any day, except during the curfew from 10 pm to 5 am (7 am on January 1);
Red zone, shoot tomorrow: how and where the controls will be. Skiing starts again at the end of January.
5) Restaurants and bars will be closed until January 6 but they can always carry the service;
6) Grocery stores, newsstands, and pharmacies stay open even on red days. All stores are open in oranges.
7) Private parties are prohibited. Dancing and singing along with other people are activities considered risky in times of Covid because the virus spreads more easily. Be careful because the police can also intervene in private homes to interrupt the holidays.
8) You can go to mass, possibly in the nearest church and strictly respecting distance and hand hygiene.
Anyone with doubts can easily clarify them by reading the answers to the most frequently asked questions on the website www.governo.it. Be careful not to blatantly ignore the rules because the fines are very high starting at 400 euros per person. Ultimately, those who leave home knowing that they are positive, instead risk the culprit epidemic process.
