Le anti-Covid measures they will decrease a little at a time, based on one road map for the return to normality that the government will spread in the coming days. He announced it Mario Draghi on the day on which the CDM has allocated eight billion against expensive bills and for the car: “I want to get out of the emergency and therefore limit the restrictions as soon as possible – the Prime Minister said on Friday – It is my will to go out with a road map that will show the way between now and March 31st, step by step".

Towards the abolition of anti-Covid measures

It starts with the stadiums

Just March 31 is the day when the state of emergency will expire. Before that – maybe the 24 March, when Italy will play in Palermo – we should return to the full capacity of stadiums and sports facilities.

The dilemma on the abolition of the green pass

Meanwhile, in the general impatience with the anti-Covid measures, the presidents of the Regions are pushing for the immediate abolition of the green pass, on the basis of what almost all European countries are doing. But the government is more likely to choose the path of gradual easing, starting with outdoor places and activities.

“The abolition of the Green Pass is a hypothesis we are thinking about – confirms Andrea Costa, Undersecretary for Health – With the gradualness with which we have introduced them, we will be moving towards an elimination of the restrictive measures. Also on indoor masks we are thinking: in any case we will have to end the vaccination campaign for all those who have not received the third dose ”.

Friuli Venezia Giulia, on the other hand, is the only Region destined to remain in the area Orange, with stricter anti-Covid measures, while Umbria remains the only happy area in White. All other Regions are in the yellow zone.

"We are in a phase of decline, evidenced by the incidence down to 672 cases per 100.000 inhabitants - he says Silvio Brusaferro, president of the Higher Institute of Health – In many European countries the curves show a downward trend, we are among those that are showing the most significant decrease. In all age groups, even in the youngest (0-19) there is a significant drop”.
