Red on paper, orange on data. The order signed yesterday by Minister of Health Roberto Speranza confirms another week of rigid anti-covid measures for Lombardy. Therefore, a red region remains: You can only move for work, health or necessity by submitting a self-declaration, retail activities will remain closed except for food, pharmacies, parapharmacies, kiosks, tobacconists, hairdressers and other stores listed in the last dpcm. For bars and restaurants, only take away sales or home delivery will be possible, lessons will be remote except for those enrolled in kindergarten, kindergarten, primary and first year of secondary. Classification may change shortly.
The signs
The situation in Lombardy for a few days improving. The signals come both from the territory and, finally, from the hospitals. The Rt contagion index is decreasing, which dropped to 1.15 in the last follow-up, and hospitalizations in low and medium intensity care rooms are slowing down. Two days ago, for the first time in weeks, hospitals registered more discharges than new arrivals, while yesterday the balance was positive only in 13 units. When observing the rest of the parameters (21 in total) according to which the color of the regions varies, we note a slowdown in the epidemic. According to the mechanism developed stopping infections for a few days with good data is not enough to remove some restrictions. The trend must be constant and consolidated for three weeks for the measurements to relax. For Lombardy, therefore, it will be necessary to wait another seven days.
Limit date
Next Friday, November 27 can turn orange as long as the parameters keep improving of the epidemiological situation. What changes for citizens in the event of a transition to a scenario that is no longer of maximum but of high severity? It is prohibited to leave your municipality (except for reasons of work, education, health or necessity), but it is possible to move freely within its territory from 5 to 22 without self-certification. Once the curfew goes into effect, you can leave the house. only for verified needs and filling in the sheet. Remote work is recommended whenever possible. It is strongly recommended not to invite people who do not live together into your home.
Schools and shops
Changes are also planned for schools. Unless the governors indicate otherwise, in the orange areas, second and third graders return to take lessons in class, while distance learning remains active for high school students. In universities, educational and curricular activities are not carried out in person, except for those relating to the first year of studies and laboratories. The difference for the exhibitors is remarkable, who can reopen their store without limitations for any type of activity, obviously respecting the interpersonal distance of at least one meter, ensuring the staggering of the entrances and the frequent cleaning of the hall and the exhibition spaces. The stop remains during the holidays and before the holidays. found in shopping centers, with the exception of pharmacies and parapharmacies, health centers, food outlets, tobacconists and kiosks. Compared to areas located on the red band, the rules for bars and restaurants do not change: take-out and home delivery are allowed, no consumption on the spot.
