under consideration of the blocking schedule

Italy red zone for Christmas and New Years with blocking, yellow or orange on days other than holidays and the day before holidays. This is one of the measures that the government is considering, which seeks a compromise between the various sensitivities of the majority to develop the final rules for Italian holidays in time of covid.

A kind of ‘calendar’ of measures, which would be composed of the following way: closing the December 24, 25, 26 and Sunday 27. Then again December 31 and January 1, 2 and 3, a Saturday and a Sunday. A commitment, which does not arrive until the closing until January 6 requested by the penalizers, which would include the ministers of the Democratic Party and the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza. The hard line but more moderate, however, would be the choice of Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte and the M5S. The weekend that is approaching, that of December 19 and 20, should not be characterized by additional limitations. You will be able to move between the regions included in the yellow zone while the arrival or departure of the orange or red areas will be possible only for residents. The government would be oriented not to restrict travel in the next few hours to avoid the “great exodus” of the holidays, as some governors who called for a crackdown complained. “The problem is not the trips – explains an authorized government source to Adnkronos – the problem is the dinners and the parties, that’s where you really risk”.
