Rome, November 14, 2020 – Almost everything is over Italy in orange or red zone with the last anti-Covid ordinance yesterday (November 13) by Health Minister Roberto Speranza, the attention of Italians and the government is now turned into christmas. How can we spend this first Christmas of the Covid era? We can gather around a table with family (mostly) and friends? There will be restrictions and maybe a Dpcm special? the dossier it’s already on the premier’s table Giuseppe Conte at the Palazzo Chigi. To date we can say that there will be few prohibitions and many recommendations and that certainly no one will knock on our door to find out who we are with. (The article continues below the map.)

The stages
It is clear that much will depend on the progress of the infection (here the bulletin of November 13): it will be important to check how things are going already on December 3 when the Dpcm that divided Italy into three zones expires. Above all, the curve ofcontagion rate Rt yesterday fell to 1.43 (here the latest weekly monitoring of the ISS). Today’s words from the president of the Higher Health Council give hope, Franco Locatelli: “Initial deceleration of the curve” that, however, is very clear: “We cannot think that Christmas is an exception, obviously the hope is to get there withRt as low as possible but then we can’t think about make exceptions in that period giving rise To the festivities we were used to They will have to be taken into account All the sizes so as not to frustrate the efforts we are making and we will continue until the Christmas period ”.
Christmas / Few intimate
One thing seems likely, considering the latest rumors: on the night of December 24 and 25 it will be possible to dine together, but always “among some close friends” and always respecting the usual rules, masks and distance. If conditions allow, there will be a relaxation of restrictions, first curfew from 10pm to 5am.
The other thing that seems true, at least as long as the situation does not deteriorate, there should be no rule that impose the number of guests admitted. Especially one that forces us to limit invitations to first degree relativesIn short, we should be able to invite whoever we want, family or friends. With you (“Christmas is spirituality”) does not want to know about such a ban. We certainly must limit ourselves to “a few close friends.”
Christmas / Travel
Now in the red or orange areas displacements they are prohibited between different regions and municipalities. If the ban were to remain in effect even at Christmas, it should still be allowed to go home for example, to students or outside workers.
Christmas / Mass
the churches they should stay open and then we can go to the traditional midnight mass on the 24th and on Christmas Day. Obviously, respecting all the security regulations currently in force or those to be adopted.
Guerini: “No rules”
The Defense Minister spoke at Christmas this morning in Milan, Lorenzo Guerini, which seems to confirm the latter scenario. “It is not necessary that the rules to live Christmas are given to people, they do it alone, because we are all serious, responsible and aware that the enemy is also faced through daily individual behaviors. I believe that the will and responsibility will be present. in all the phases that we will go through, even in the Christmas phase. I hope it is a moment in which people live above all the moment of serenity ”.

All contact will be at risk” . As for the Christmas lunch, it can be done although “it will be better to leave the grandparents at home. Parents and children at most.
