The figures provided by the Lombardy Region on the spread of Covid-19 infection in our territory were updated to Tuesday, September 8.
Heals and Discharges increased (+158) Against 20,781 swabs performed, 271 new positives were found. The relationship between the number of swabs performed and the positives found is 1.3%.
We remind you that the increase in positive cases, in Lombardy as in other regions, must always be related to the number of swabs performed. Without ever forgetting that, if we think in terms of absolute comparisons, the number of inhabitants of Lombardy is equal to 1/6 of the national population.

We are looking for and finding the virus in the area with follow-up – he continued – of the reports and through contact tracing. A virus that in 90 percent of cases hides dangerously behind asymptomaticity.
