In Italy, the 500 daily deaths continue to be touched by Covid and the government must decide whether to tighten the shirts again in the Christmas season and how, especially to make impossible the shopping gatherings that have been seen in all the big cities, trying to remove the specter of the third wave in January. The decision will be made within 48 hours, tomorrow night or Wednesday, with an ongoing conversation with the Scientific Technical Committee (CTS), which has leaked the need for stricter measures. The hypothesis is that of a national red zone on holidays and the days leading up to holidays, a de facto lockdown, from Boxing Day’s Eve, from New Year’s Eve to New Year’s Eve, with only essential services open. Or that, more likely, from some kind of large orange area, with shops open and restaurants closed. And with an early curfew at 6 or 8 pm.

Critical hope
“We are thinking about the two weeks of the Christmas holidays – says the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza -. I hope that in a short time we can take more measures to avoid a hypothetical third wave.” “We must be more rigorous during the holidays”, echoes the Minister of Regional Affairs, Francesco Boccia. “In Italy the contagion curve is falling, while in Germany it is increasing”, he observes; leading to the exclusion of a nationwide lockdown of weeks in the German example. But there will be a squeeze, with the only exception perhaps to travel between small towns within a certain number of kilometers.

Orange zone, it’s shock
The national red zone on holidays and the eve of holidays, however, does not see everyone in government and most agree. And then there is the issue of soft drinks: the closure of stores, bars and restaurants would lead managers to ask for more financial support. But the need for hardening, explained by the CTS, is linked to the impossibility, on the one hand, of a capillary control of the territory and, on the other, to the still “worrying” data of the epidemic. “We need to extend the measures, otherwise we will be in trouble in January,” say the experts, who urge to strengthen controls on compliance with the measures already in force. But stopping shoppers or restaurants, where and as long as it is allowed, is not possible. The regions, which were pushing to loosen ties, now face the prospect of tightening.

Toti: no to homogeneous measurements
The most explicit is the president of Liguria Giovanni Toti, who says ‘no to homogeneous measures throughout the country, claiming data from the yellow zone of his territory.’ “I find the idea of a new confinement for Christmas surreal, announced by the government almost with penitential pleasure – says Toti, number two of the Conference of the Regions -. As if Italians were punished for wanting to buy some gifts to make these holidays less loved.

Giuseppe Conte: “Close rows”
Luca Zaia, president of Veneto, on the other hand, is very severe with meetings, struggling with an increase in infections. “I saw a filthy spectacle,” he says. It is a world of vomiting, a creeping and non-dominant culture according to which this is the virus of the old people and they see that ”. Meanwhile, the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella once again invokes “a collective effort”, in this case at the global level, because, he says, only he and “only effective multilateralism can allow the international community to overcome this emergency.”
