Starting on Thursday, October 22, Lombardy – unless the government decides differently and nationally – enters what has been called a “curfew” from 23 to 5 hours, chosen as a buffer to reduce coronavirus infections that have scared again. Between today and tomorrow, therefore, Governor Fontana, his councilor, the technicians, the mayors of the capitals, the prefects will have to refine the regulation of what was announced last night as a proposal, and that the Minister of Health. Roberto Speranza has already approved it, although not yet in writing. A new ordinance will be needed, at that time, that puts all the rules, allowed things, and bans online. Let’s see, then, what are the fixed points and what are the knots to untie.

Curfew times in Lombardy
The hypothesis raised is the prohibition of all activities and trips, with the exception of ‘exceptional’ cases (health reasons, work and demonstrated need), in all Lombardy from 23.00 to 17.00 from Thursday 22. October and until November 13.
Exceptions to the curfew in Lombardy: self-certifications and particular reasons
As already during the confinement, there are special categories that can continue to move even during the night. Those who work at night or shift workers who start or end shifts in that time slot, who must go to the hospital. However, some knots remain: how to prove exceptional reason? With the self-certifications that you had to print and always carry with you during the confinement? And who will do the controls? And again, a hotly debated question in recent months: bring your dog to relieve himself as an exception after 11pm and before 5am? Will there be a maximum distance from your home within which you will be allowed to move again?
Curfew in Lombardy, shopping centers and department stores are closed on weekends. Crisanti: “Take a step forward to avoid confinement”

Bars and restaurants, what changes with the curfew in Lombardy
The latest order signed last Friday by Governor Fontana (and in force for three weeks) and the Prime Minister’s Decree have established that the premises must close at midnight, interrupting the service at the counter or in any case stopped at 6 in the evening. Curfew at 23:00, these hours will necessarily have to be revised: because if waiters and cooks could move beyond that time for work reasons, this does not apply to customers. Therefore, it will be necessary to establish with certainty the maximum opening hours for all catering and restoration activities, to ensure that all customers return to their homes at the X hour.
Curfew in Lombardy, closing of shopping centers on weekends
During Monday’s meeting between Governor Fontana and the mayors, all those present “shared the opportunity to close, on Saturday and Sunday, medium and large-scale retail, except for food and basic necessities.” . So stop at the shopping malls on the weekends, but inland hypermarkets will stay open and the shutters closed for clothing, shoe, DIY, and household chains in cities. Current laws consider that medium structures are between 151 and 1,550 square meters in municipalities with less than 10,000 inhabitants and between 251 and 2,500 square meters in municipalities with more than 10,000 inhabitants.
