Zero deaths in Lombardy, perhaps missing data

(ANSA) - MILAN, MAY 24 - The news would be extraordinary: no deaths have been reported for Covid today in Lombardy for the first time since the outbreak in February. LaRegione explains that "the flows from the hospital network and the territorial registries today did not report deaths". But such a positive result could also be caused by the lack of data transmission from the hospital network and from the municipal registry offices.
    It has already happened, on the occasion of holidays or weekends of the last months, that the data were not fully updated and the missing ones were added the day after. To be sure that this is such a decisive reversal of the trend in the most lugubrious and slowest increase in the epidemic in Lombardy (+ 56 died yesterday), it is therefore necessary to wait, for safety, the data of the day after Monday 25 May.
