the Piedmont closes shopping centers (except grocery stores) on weekends, Campania me Lombardy They close everything, with a kind of curfew starting at 11 at night. While the latest coronavirus bulletin from the Ministry of Health registers 10,874 new cases and 89 victims, the regions facing the second wave move in no particular order. The governors thus take advantage of the margin of maneuver granted by the last Dpcm adopting more rigorous and severe measures.
Some regions, as Lombardy did yesterday, are requesting the consent of the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, to “protect themselves” against new measures of hardening and red zone. The idea is that of concertation and the greatest possible exchange of possible new measures to be taken, even at the territorial level, “by zone”. For now, we are not talking about extended blocking but, thanks also to what the latest Dpcm allows, restrictive and localized closures. Here is the updated situation in the individual regions.
The curfew in Campania
In Campania, which has the worst epidemiological curve together with Lombardy, will trigger a curfew in the model of the region led by Attilio Fontana. As learned from a note published by the Regional Crisis Unit, Campania has asked the Minister of Health to share and organize suspension of all activities from 23:00 to 5:00 in the morning and in the transfers from 24:00, starting next weekend, throughout the regional territory. To reduce mobility, there is also “the limitation of interprovincial trips, if it is not justified – after self-certification – for reasons of work, health, education, social welfare, supply of basic necessities”. who more details.
“We wanted to start from the last weekend of October – said the president of the Region Vincenzo De Luca – but let’s start now”.
Activities in the presence of primary schools will reopen from Monday, October 26, but will be “subject to a new verification that will be carried out in the coming days on the trend of infections registered in school personnel and students.”
- Commercial activities closed from 11pm to 5am
- Transfers from 24:00 are with self-certification.
Curfew in Lombardy
Also in Lombardy data on new infections are worrying. For this reason, President Attilio Fontana intends to declare a curfew from 11 to 5 as of Thursday, in addition to the closure of shopping centers on Saturdays and Sundays, with the exception of basic needs. Fontana asked the government for a kind of green light. Despite the choice of the region, there were several factors, among them (obviously) the increase in cases and the impossibility of now tracking all the contacts of the positives, but also and above all the increase in hospitalizations: according to the forecasts made by technicians, without restrictions as of October 31 there could be around 600 in the ICU and up to 4,000 in sub-intensive care. The same reasons could push other regional presidents to intervene to bend the contagion curve.
- Commercial activities closed from 11pm to 5am
- Shopping centers closed on Saturdays and Sundays
Closed shopping centers in Piedmont (and beyond)
The governor of the Piedmont Alberto Cirio decided the closure of shopping centers during the weekend. “In the afternoon I will sign an ordinance that closes non-food shopping centers throughout the region – he told the microphones of Tagadà’s broadcast on La7 -. We only keep food and pharmacies open, basic needs ”. Also, in Turin, piazza Santa Giulia, via Pescatore, piazza Montanaro will be closed to the public (or more precisely, with highly regulated access) in the afternoon and evening to avoid crowds next weekend with the exception of residents. In these three areas, therefore, stopping is prohibited.
Starting Monday, October 26 Piedmont high schoolsFrom the second to the fifth year, they must activate forms of distance learning with precise parameters: at least 50% of students must attend classes from home in rotation. The measure will be valid for one month, without prejudice to the possibility of intervention by the authorities.

- 50% dad in high school
The irregular closures in Genoa
In LiguriaOn the other hand, the President of the Region Giovanni Toti and the Mayor of Genoa Marco Bucci have not yet explicitly pronounced the word “curfew”, but irregular closures are being studied in some areas of the city of Genoa to try to limit the gatherings in some streets and squares of the historic center on certain days of the week.
In addition, the Liguria Region will apply an ordinance similar to that of Piedmont in schools. “I just heard from Governor Toti, to whom we transmitted our ordinance in the afternoon – said Piedmont Governor Cirio in a videoconference – and he confirmed that his Region will also adopt a similar measure”, that is, distance learning alternating with lessons. in attendance at 50% for high school students in grades two through five.
The hypothesis of selective closures in large cities
Other similar measures could be taken in other large cities such as Naples and Turin. This, for example, is the idea of Fabrizio Pregliasco, one of the technical-scientific consultants of the Lombardy Region, according to whom “the possibility of a curfew in the afternoon and at night in cities like Milan, Rome and Naples and in all those areas of the country where the situation could quickly precipitate. ” Small “closures” that could prevent, according to Pregliasco, a heavier and more widespread closure at Christmas. Pregliasco also believes that the curfew introduced by Fontana “is not entirely sufficient for Milan.” “Due to population density, job exchanges, contacts related to the type of housing in Milan, he is undoubtedly a more serious patient.” The virologist explained that the effects of this ordinance will be awaited “but soon we are ready to imagine new measures.”
The curfew in Veneto and Emilia-Romagna is excluded
However, among the regions at risk of a curfew, Emilia Romagna should be excluded. According to Governor Stefano Bonaccini “at this time there is no need for curfew measures” because the percentage rate of positives per day “is among the lowest in Italy”. “The restriction of the habits of the city is done – he added – if necessary.”
Even Veneto, through the mouth of the Regional Minister of Health, Manuela Lanzarote, ruled out the introduction of new restrictions: “What we present today is a hospital plan, on other initiatives dictated by other numbers and on which there is a dialogue at the national level is another game. Today in Veneto they don’t think about the closure or the curfew on the horizon. “
The provisions of mayors
Mayors are also very active. Since this morning, the schools and kindergartens in Sestu, in the metropolitan city of Cagliari, have been closed, as well as parking lots for babies, gyms, libraries and squares equipped with games. Not only. Cultural and sporting events and all public and private events were also suspended until the 29th. The mini-closure decided by Mayor Paola Secci is linked to the rebound in coronavirus cases, which went from 15 to 37 in a few days. Always at risk in cities, but especially in smaller centers, local markets or – in a few weeks – those dedicated to the Christmas festivities. This has already happened in Gorizia, where this year the usual Sant’Andrea Fair (both the market and the attractions) will not be held and the ice skating rink will not be installed in the central Piazza della Vittoria.

The Christmas markets have also been definitively canceled in South Tyrol, as announced by Governor Arno Kompatscher, who announced the closing of bars at 11 pm and game rooms at 6 pm. There are no markets also in Trento, said Mayor Franco Ianeselli. The acceleration of infections leads municipalities to make drastic gestures, as happened in Altamura (Bari), where town halls and face-to-face committee meetings were canceled. And the works will continue only online. Altamura is currently one of the municipalities in Apulia with the most Covid infections: 260 people are in home isolation, 7 hospitalized. Finally, a mini-confinement in the Sorrento peninsula, where a strict control will be carried out until October 24 to eliminate possible infected.
