Among the ministers there are those who support a kind of curfew, with all the premises closed from 10 or 23. Nothing is decided, also because there are two opposing lines in the government. There are those, like M5 and Iv, who want to be more cautious in this phase. And there are those, like Pd and Leu, on the other hand, believe that we must act immediately, without delay, even with tougher measures “so as not to have to resort to confinement later.”

Giuseppe Conte maintains the idea that the measures should be “proportionate”: he calls for a common EU strategy to avoid “destruction for all” and announces 200 or 300 million vaccines “very soon”.

River Summit at Palazzo Chigi, after the maneuver the new Covid Dpcm is discussed First the Maneuver, then the new Covid Dpcm. Long night of discussion at Palazzo Chigi, where the chapters of the next budget law were discussed. At the end of the first round, the hypothesis of a new Covid Dpcm will be discussed. The meeting between the government and the Regions will be held on Saturday morning. Only after that will the executive prepare to shut down the new Dpcm due to new anti-contagion restrictions.

Meanwhile, the Regions move in no particular order. New straits arrive in Campania, Lombardy, Piedmont. The government will seek greater coordination in a meeting called in the morning by Francesco Boccia with Speranza, Commissioner Domenico Arcuri and the governors. Arcuri asks them to activate 1,600 places in intensive care for which the materials have been sent. And Conte warns that “closing schools as a whole is not the best solution,” referring to De Luca.

The government, the Minister of Education, Lucia Azzolina speculates, could question that choice: “Instead of being in class, Campania students wander through the shopping malls,” she complains. The common line of the government is that schools should not be closed. Some ministers propose the hypothesis of strengthening distance lessons (it is now possible, in the autonomy of individual institutes) and staggering the schedules further, with classes also in the afternoon. But don’t close the classrooms completely.

The executive, warns Boccia, has offered and continues to provide all the possible support to the Regions, but before going to school and work, answers must be given by activating all the intensive care units.

However, new restrictive measures are needed at the national level, to stop the rise of the curve, they invoke Franceschini and Speranza. The CTS, who had advised us to stagger the hours to lighten the transport, is ready to meet to comment. The head of the Pd delegation asks Conte for a summit as soon as he returns to Rome from the Brussels European Council. The hypothesis is that it will take place in the evening between Friday and Saturday, for a new Dpcm already on the weekend. But the prime minister is not unbalanced on the new measures, confirms the commitments of the agenda until late at night and still takes a few hours to evaluate. On what to do, in addition, his ministers do not agree. Some would like to re-apply restrictions similar to those in place in the early stages after the shutdown. The toughest would like a greater hardening of sports, even for children, and other activities considered unnecessary, as well as closing clubs and shops at 10pm, with a kind of curfew.

Peak infections The Five Stars, defending what Azzolina did at school and calling for “uniformity in transportation” to avoid crowds. In Italy, there are more than 100,000 people positive for the coronavirus: with 10,010 new cases, against 8,804 on Thursday.

To regions with an index of contagion higher than 1, explains the adviser to the Minister of Health, Walter Ricciardi, “selective closures were recommended, in which clubs, gyms, non-essential stores participated.” IS smart work as an “ordinary form of work throughout the country.” To ensure safety in public transport.
