(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 14 - "We understand the unbridled desire of Italians to socialize and to normality, but if we want to intelligently manage the pandemic, the scenes we have witnessed even during this weekend are not replicable. The crowd for Christmas shopping, gatherings , the city centers taken by storm: this is not the right way. These behaviors, as the president of the Lombardy Region Fontana pointed out, risk compromising the results achieved. We are still in the middle of the second wave, the restrictions have only partially cooled the contagion curve, the coldest season and long and difficult months still await us.We need to live with the virus, but we must do it responsibly, with prudence, strictly observing all the provisions for social distancing.
We absolutely must avert a third wave of Covid in Italy.
Our health system, and even our economic fabric, already severely hit by the crisis, would not hold up. "This was stated in a note by Mariastella Gelmini, head of Forza Italia in the Chamber of Deputies. (ANSA).
