hi, sorry what’s happening rn in italy? Which are the updates?
All ‘unnecessary’ businesses are now shut down as part of the complete quarantine. That includes everything from clothing shops, bar, restaurants, cafes, ‘unnecessary’ factories to beauty parlours and hair salons, along with schools, universities, museums, gyms, etc. Pharmacies, supermarkets, banks, police stations, mail services, public transport and ‘basic necessity food shops’ (such as delicatessens and fish sellers) can stay open.
As before, people are allowed ‘short walks outside as long as they’re on their own’, but are now banned from leaving their village/hometown, except for work commutes (which they have to prove). Other than that, they can only go outside for emergencies, necessities (eg groceries) and health reasons, and have to present a self-certification document if stopped by the police – false claims are punishable by jail time (3 months). No public gatherings, no visiting people/relatives/friends, and yes, police are patrolling. People have to stay at home. Outside, minimum distance from each other is one metre.
We are now at 12.462 Covid 19 cases, 827 deaths and 1.045 recoveries. Hospitals in Northern Italy are seriously struggling because there’s not enough ITU for everyone. Doctors have to prioritise who to cure, based on how likely they are to recover. If the number of cases rise in other parts of the country, the entire healthcare system will risk a collapse. So, if you can, please donate to the following hospitals - if not, please spread the word:
Ospedale Niguarda (Milan)
Ospedale Maggiore (Cremona)
Ospedale Fatebenefratelli (Naples)
Ospedale Sant’Anna (Como)
Ospedale San Matteo (Pavia)
Terapia Intensiva di Padova
Azienda Ospedaliera Pugliese-Ciaccio (Catanzaro)
Santa Maria Nuova (Reggio Emilia)
Ospedale Cotugno (Naples)
Ospedale Umberto I (Enna)
Novara’s hospital (Piedmont)
In this Twitter thread, you will find several other links to donate to.
It’s not easy, so thank you for your help.
