[ad_1]

“During the Christmas holidays, the same lightness that you see in summer should not be repeated. We must not lose our memory because an unjustified free climate has been created. We must face the period seriously if we do not want strong closings between January and February ». Words by the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, on the morning of this Wednesday in the Senate to announce some of the measures provided for in the new Dpcm that will be announced for the containment of Covid-19: particularly ‘tight’ for the 25- December 26 and New Years.

SPECIAL CORONAVIRUS – UMBRIAON

Roberto Speranza

No to total blocking

In the introduction, Speranza noted that the latest data from the monitoring booth “gives us useful information to guide the upcoming elections. The set of measures are beginning to give their first results: the daily increase in infections decreases and I am confident that in the short term the Rt index will fall below 1. We want to round the curve without a generalized blockage. We need more weeks of sacrifices and then a robust maintenance treatment: let’s not trade a first ray of sunlight for the narrow escape. As of December 21, movements between the yellow regions (Umbria is destined to be so soon) will only be able to return to their place of residence according to the latest government indications.

Options for Christmas and New Years

There are two basic options that Speranza presents for the new decree: «The reconfirmation of the classification model of the Regions by scenario and risk index because it is giving satisfactory results. The technicians are discussing the parameters but the basic system is correct and allows us to act quickly since epidemiological conditions vary. The second is that in order to adequately deal with vacations, limitations will have to be reinforced: limit contacts as much as possible – Speranza explained – which are not essential between people. During the Christmas holidays, international and interregional movements should be discouraged in the presence of red or orange zones. On December 25, 26 and January 1, movement between municipalities should also be limited and possible concentrations in tourist sites should be avoided; The dissemination risks associated with the Christmas and New Year aggregation moments should be reduced. ‘

The schools

Brief passage also about the school world: «We decided to continue with the lessons in the presence of primary and secondary schools also in the red zones. The government’s goal is to gradually bring back high school students as well. ‘
