Stop at private parties, including at home, and suspension from amateur contact sports, such as soccer. Infections of coronavirus in Italy keep climbing, and the Government does not rule out advancing the Dpcm to tomorrow with the new restrictive measures, a starting with the anti-movement, considered essential to prevent the situation from getting out of control.

MOVIDA, RULES AND CONTROLS

Just the knot of nightlife and coexistence to containAccording to executive sources, it was the focus of the meeting of the heads of delegation and Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte held yesterday afternoon. And the idea of close the premises at 24 (We were thinking yesterday at 11pm), an hour that would not have negative repercussions on restaurants. At the meeting, the hypothesis also emerged, as mentioned, of anticipating the launch of the Dpcm but – the same sources explain – being the time very tight, it cannot be ruled out that the new tightening will be implemented, as expected, in the future. Wednesday night. In any case, tomorrow the ministers involved in the new measures – which will also include a remodeling of smart work – will work on fine-tuning the measures.

Central, in this sense, is the meeting, called urgently for this afternoon – of the Scientific Technical Committee (Cts) with the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza. It is in this context that the new measures that will be put in place will be discussed.

Apart (for now) the total lock, no measure is excluded a priori, given the worsening of the situation. From the curfew on the premises to the prohibition of the sale of alcohol after a certain hour, to the prohibited parking stopped in front of the same bars and pubs; From expanding work at home to reducing the percentage of passengers on public transport, to stopping travel between regions, everything is possible in theory. “We must have the strength to take over this new stage immediately – says Speranza -. We have a small advantage over other countries but we must not be under any illusions and if we realize that there is a phase change we can avoid more drastic measures. In conclusion, rigor now for not having to close everything again, as Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said a few days ago. So today we will consider what to do.

Events and ceremonies. Restrictions are likely to apply in the first place for public events and private parties, including weddings and christenings, up to funerals. In Sardinia, the Region has decided to open sports halls for up to 700 people, but in the new Decree the threshold of 200 spectators could not be surpassed. Another topical question i public transport: 80 percent of capacity, much higher than indicated by the CTS, could be reduced as a threshold. The situation seems to get out of hand, with a non-exponential growth of infections, but constant and for now unstoppable. We think, with concern, of the saturation of health establishments due to the influx of patients to intensive and ordinary care rooms. According to the strategic study for the autumn-winter phase, with the Rt contagion index higher than 1.2 -a level already reached in Campania-, in 3 months the hospitals would have an overload.
