On the restrictive measures after the Epiphany, after the summit met by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte with Minister Boccia, the majority heads and the Scientific Technical Committee, the idea of ​​a “bridging measure” between 7 and 15 arose. from January. There are two proposals: keep the current measures in force until January 15 (orange on weekdays and red on weekends), expiration date of the last Dpcm, or return to the yellow zone on January 7 and 8, and then switch to the orange band measurements on the weekend of the 9th and 10th and then, based on the tracking, assign the bands for the following week. The new Report of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità is scheduled between next Thursday and Friday. However, the provision will contain measures to be applied at the national level, beyond the band system, and was illustrated to the Presidents of the Region. On the part of the Government, however, there is the will to draft an order that is shared as far as possible.

The parameters also end up in the table of changes: among the proposals is to review the Rt index in a more restrictive function, one of the alarm indicators that triggers the bands for the regions. In particular, the Rt threshold that activates the orange band would be reduced to 1 (instead of the current 1.25) while for the red band it would be sufficient to reach an Rt equal to 1.25 (instead of the current 1.50) . ).

Now it seems certain that during the weekend of January 9 and 10 at least the measures planned for the “orange” zone will be in force throughout Italy, which could instead turn “red” if there was an agreement with the Regions. Among the hypothesized measures are also the closures of bars and restaurants also for lunch, but open only for the sale of takeout food. On the other hand, it is almost certain that on January 7 and until January 15, movement between Regions will be allowed only for reasons of necessity, as well as the prohibition of welcoming more than two family members or friends at home, excluding minors under 14 years.

Regarding the school, comes a clear announcement from the Prime Minister: teaching in the presence of 50% in schools must start again from 7. But it is not yet taken for granted that all the Regions decide to align themselves with what is established at the national level. The still high numbers of contagion are worrying and, especially in the South, the tables with the prefects have yielded satisfactory results only in some territories. “We have done everything necessary in terms of security for transport in accordance with the prefects, but there are still many criticisms regarding the containment of the pandemic,” warn the presidents of the Region in Legal Fee.
