Covid, the government is working on a new dpcm with more restrictive measures. Conte meets with the heads of delegation and Speranza meets with the CTS

Accelerate for a national squeeze, but trying to avoid as long as possible a national blockade. The first Minister Giuseppe Conte, as told by Daily fact on newsstands, he does not hesitate to say that he is “very concerned” after consultations with members of the Scientific technical committee: on the one hand he insists on preaching prudence, on the other, he agrees on the need to reach a greater hardening. The options on the table are different and, according to rumors, could lead to the development of a for the weekend new Dpcm. Meanwhile, a meeting is taking place between Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, the heads of the majority delegation and the ministers. On the table the new measures that should converge in the Dpcm but also the situation in Naples after the incidents last night The Minister of Health Roberto Speranza has called for the afternoon the Scientific technical committee: the meeting is scheduled for 3.30 pm.

The main and shared goal is to further limit leisure and travel. For this reason, the most restrictive hypothesis foresees a national curfew and the closure of bars and restaurants at least in twenty-one. Discussion is open on schedule: final mediation could be in 22, but there are those who ask for a more drastic intervention with closure at 18 so that citizens can move during the day just to study and work.

The most rigorous wing of government no longer excludes a lock, for a limited time of Two or three weeks and with a new massive injection of aid to the economy. From the Palazzo Chigi they announced that the hypotheses are only suggestions, but the request made by the president of Campania Vincenzo De Luca for a national closure may have required a general acceleration. The truth is that the presidents of the region are pressing for more severe interventions, as confirmed by the minister. Francesco Boccia, especially in light of the more than 19,000 infections in the last 24 hours. “I think that in the next few hours in the country it would be necessary to standardize some measures on restrictions to have a more homogeneous behavior”, said in the morning the president of the Emilia-Romagna Region and the Conference of the Regions Stefano Bonaccini to Generazione Giovani in RaiDue .

The non-essential activities with the highest risk of closure, on this there would be an almost unanimous agreement in the executive, are gyms me swimming pool so the updated protocol with even stricter measures would no longer be considered sufficient. And then the galleries and shopping malls, especially crowded on weekends.

Finally, the other big concern is lightening public transport. But it is precisely in transport and schools where a rebound between ministries is taking place that for now has also slowed down the call for the meeting with the hypothesized Regions to harmonize regional measures. Lucía Azzolina is on the barricades in defense of teaching in presence, supported by Luigi Di Maio and the M5: you are infected in buses and subways, not in class, they insist. Paola De Micheli defends the quota measures already adopted and resists pressure from Cinco Estrellas to lower capacity from the current 80%. Of course, a new restriction would lead to a massive strengthening of smart work. But at that point, Democratic sources claim, distance education should also increase, starting from high school. Regarding travel, the opportunity, given the spread of the virus, of intervene preventing the transfer of the Regions: more likely to give directions to limit unnecessary exits as much as possible.

To complicate Conte’s work, there are a diversity of opinions of the majority parties. From Italia viva, which is against the closure but also against the curfew, to Pd and Leu, with Roberto Speranza, who push to intervene immediately and ask the Italians for that greater “sacrifice” that can block the curve and also save Christmas: the Democratic Party is ready to support drastic decisions, is the message of Nicola Zingaretti. The M5 is taking a more cautious stance, but it would be ready for another intervention. The next few hours and, above all, the next data, will be decisive.

Supports ilfattoquotidiano.it: I never eat right now
we need you.

In these weeks of pandemic, journalists, if we do our work conscientiously, we carry out a public service. Also for this reason, every day here at ilfattoquotidiano.it we are proud to offer hundreds of new content for free to all citizens: news, exclusive insights, expert interviews, surveys, videos and much more. All this work, however, comes at great financial cost. Advertising, at a time when the economy is stagnant, offers limited income. Not in line with the access boom. That is why I ask those who read these lines to support us. Give us a minimum contribution, equal to the price of a cappuccino per week, which is essential for our work.

THANKS FOR READING NOW XX ITEMS THIS MONTH.

But now we are the ones who need you. Because our work has a cost. We are proud to be able to offer hundreds of new content to all citizens for free every day. But advertising, at a time when the economy is stagnant, offers limited revenue. Not in line with the boom in access to ilfattoquotidiano.it. That is why I ask you to support us, with a minimum contribution, equal to the price of one cappuccino per week. A small but fundamental sum for our work. Give us a hand!
