Milan, November 25, 2020 – Exactly one month after Christmas, Lombardy places an application for Minister Speranza under the tree. The gift that the Lombards await could already arrive Friday, November 27 with the relaxation of anti-Covid measures and the transition from red to orange zone. On the other hand, the main indicators are positive and for days the region most affected by Covid has been showing signs of constant improvement: since decrease in contagion rate Rt, which fell below 1 in Milan, due to the reduction of the positive swab ratio, yesterday to 15.7%, until the pressure on hospitals, where for two days there has been a negative sign in intensive care, eased. Not to mention the absolute data that sees the number of infections declining across the region. The Covid newsletter recorded yesterday in Lombardy 4,886 new positives with 31,033 swabs processed. All the elements that leave hope open to the Lombards, despite the prudent line followed by Conte government, which would prefer to postpone any “promotion” to December 3 to consolidate the data and not risk burning the holiday season. But the governor Attilio fontana I would prefer to immediately collect the coupon accumulated by the Lombards who, already at the end of November with a regional ordinance, had to deal with anti-covid measures. And yesterday Fontana pressured the government: “From the 27th we will be able to ask to enter the orange zone. Today’s data would even credit us in the yellow zone, but I don’t want to get ahead of the times. “

While the Rt by admission date, as of November 14, is just above, at 1.03.
