The mayor has decided, Naples must be stopped, blocked, limited: one of the many hypotheses, the one that is considered most likely at this time is that the prohibition of pedestrians, one of the weapons available to mayors, is decreed. You can travel by car but it will be forbidden to walk and meet, this would be the most accredited possibility for now, although the issue is ongoing and new projects are manifested at every step. The only certainty is that the city will be blocked. This has been announced two days ago by the mayor of Magistris, who is developing the best solution to lock the virus in a cage without violating national and regional regulations. The decision of a total confinement cannot be made by a mayor alone, but the possibilities of intervention with local ordinances can be endless and the mayor, together with his small circle of trusted people, between one hosted on television and the other on radio, he examines them one by one to arrive at the appointed day, tomorrow, with an impregnable text.

The hypothesis closest to reality is that everything will start with an official declaration of a “city in a state of health emergency”, a document that a mayor can, in fact must, sign when he realizes that the situation is untenable. So, the first official act, in view of the restrictions promised by the mayor, is to transform Naples into a city in a state of emergency.
Based on the declaration of a health emergency, more options may begin to be available to limit the spread of the disease. Currently what the last Dpcm suggests, which is to decide to close excessively crowded streets or squares, does not seem to please Dema, who has explained repeatedly that, once a street is prohibited, people will crowd another, the exercise becomes useless. It is in the light of these reflections that the hypothesis of a ban on pedestrian circulation extended to the entire territory of the city would have matured.
To tell the truth, the mayor of Naples, who is also a metropolitan mayor, that is to say of the entire province, had thought (and it is not certain that he is not doing it yet at this time) to organize a generalized provision that will be extended to all municipalities from the province of the capital: it would have been a way to avoid overcrowding on weekends in which people who come from neighboring towns also participate intensely. The hypothesis of the pluriprovincial ordinance, however, would have disappeared before the project to limit pedestrian movements in the Neapolitan territory. Basically the idea is that by not being able to move on foot, even the people who eventually arrive from the municipalities of the province cannot contribute to the gatherings in Naples.; however, they can continue to move freely in their respective territories for which individual mayors can, as is happening in many places, make ad hoc decisions.
The Naples case is becoming central to the entire country. Yesterday afternoon, Prime Minister Conte himself referred to the situation in the city during the meeting with the heads of delegation at Palazzo Chigi: “We are the State – Conte said – and if there are widespread reports of critical problems in the facilities health of the city of Naples we have to give a signal. ”From the meeting at Palazzo Chigi it was leaked that the government is considering strengthening the presence of the army and civil protection in Naples to support the management of the emergency.
On the local front, however, there are no start signals: the police claim that they have not been alerted and that they have not yet received any control orders for the pedestrian traffic bans.
