Despite the improvement in coronavirus infection data, Campania remains the orange zone for Covid19 risk. The governor Vincenzo De LucaIn fact, it has decided to confirm the orange zone in Campania, despite the fact that for the Ministry of Health and the Government the new classification was for the yellow zone, from today until Wednesday, December 23. De Luca’s decision aroused the reaction of restaurateurs and bar managers, who relied on the breath of fresh air before Christmas for a timid economic recovery. The Government, in fact, has foreseen last Christmas Dpcm, in force until Befana, that the holidays will be the red zone, while the other days will be the orange zone.
After this decision of the Palazzo Santa Lucia, protests are inevitable: Confcommercio and Confesercenti complain to the prefect, the restaurateurs, on the other hand, go to the facts: a few dozen restaurateurs and pizza makers who question the governor’s decision. The easing of the restrictions was highly anticipated and was confirmed by the Ministry of Health, which, the protesters explain, had led many to stock up on food for the four days of possible reopening of the new national red zone. Food that will inevitably no longer be of use.
