In Lombardy 95 new cases, 40.4% of the total. Trend increase in infections but less tampons in 24 hours. Only in 5 zero new regions (ANSA)


New outbreaks and a constant growth trend of the infections, despite the fact that fewer swabs have been made in the last 24 hours. In the spotlight, now there are no longer only Lombardy and Veneto : the clusters in Emilia Romagna and Tuscany worry, while only five regions do not register new patients.

235 new coronavirus infections are reported, with 'only' 51,011 swabs performed in the last 24 hours, about 26 thousand less than the previous day. In Lombardy there are 95 new cases, 40% of the total, while 51 are in Emilia Romagna, of which 40 without symptoms, linked in particular to two active outbreaks. The total number of infections in Italy thus rises to 241,419.

The new victims are 21, reaching a total of 34,854 deaths since the beginning of the epidemic. Data that are falling in the growing fears of the country, crossed by several outbreaks.

But for the deputy minister of health, Pierpaolo Sileri, they were expected: "the virus circulates, even if less. Scientists will find out if it is less aggressive or mutated. The evidence is that the outbreaks are scattered and each one is a battle. You win by controlling them and avoiding them to extend. This is what awaits us in the coming months ", comments Sileri confirming the strategy that to contain them there may be lockdowns on small areas:" an RSA, a country, we have to get used to this but the clinical evidence is reassuring.
