The stop of flights from Great Britain, decided with an order signed by Health Minister Roberto Speranza due to the new variant of the coronavirus, would be in effect from midnight today until January 6.

“I signed a new ordinance that blocks flights out of Great Britain and prohibits the entry into Italy of those who have passed through it in the last 14 days. Anyone who is already in Italy, coming from that territory, is obliged to submit to antigenic or molecular swab by contacting the prevention departments ”, Speranza announces with a post on Facebook.

“The Covid variant, recently discovered in London, is worrying and will have to be investigated by our scientists. In the meantime, let us choose the path of utmost caution,” adds Speranza.
