In the traditional Trastevere neighborhood, thousands of girls and boys defied the restrictions by dancing and singing without putting on the obligatory mask, or keeping their distance.

The extension to be announced on Tuesday of the emergency measures to contain the pestilence, "are absolutely essential in a phase of global growth of the pandemic." Ricciardi affirms that it is not only necessary to impose the use of masks and to maintain safety distances. "We have to maintain a rapid reaction capacity that the state of emergency guarantees us."
Emergency measures establish strict quarantine “red zones” as soon as outbreaks of infection are detected. There have been times when the areas exceeded one hundred. "Otherwise the situation risks escaping all control."
What is Coronavirus? How is it spread and what are its symptoms?
Watch the special"The summer heat and humidity hinder the spread of the virus, but they are not enough to contrast it. I see a great relaxation of prudence and I ask Italians to react because if we continue like this we will miss the opportunity to drastically reduce infections, "explained the ministerial counselor. Fears are spreading to the phenomenon of frank growth of those infected who arrive in Italy infected from the outside. This is another growing phenomenon. Of 19 infections on Saturday in Rome, 12 originated beyond borders.
Among the traveling agents of the contagion are the Italians who return with the virus, but especially thousands of foreign workers . A part works in Italy. Now those who want to flee their countries are added, plus those who are looking to get medical treatment in Italy, which is very famous for its free health services.
The most controlled community is that of immigrants from Bangladesh. There are 180,000 in Italy, reports the newspaper La Repubblica . It also mentions 127 thousand Moldovans and 92 thousand Peruvians, present with large communities in Rome. After suffering a wave of contagion from several flights from Bangladesh, Italy prohibited the entry to its territory to thirteen countries, including Brazil, Chile and Peru. On the other side is Uruguay, the only Latin American country whose inhabitants are on the gold list of "non-Covid-19" countries.
Among those who warn that there are repeated signs that the coronavirus seems less dangerous but is always present, the relief written in an Interne media by the nurse Luca Alini, 47, who provides services in the Cremona hospital, caused a sensation. of the most punished cities in Lombardy. Alini said that his had been "a relief" because "too many people have removed their chinstrap or have it only on their necks . " "I don't believe in scaremongering, but I do keep attention high."
The nurse gave an overview of what is happening in the Cremona hospital, which was a front line hospital in the battle against the epidemic that arrived on February 21 and flared up in April, May and part of June. “A week ago we had released Pneumology from the last patient. Seven days later, two had to be admitted, now there are ten from other sectors of the hospital. ”
Alini felt that she was beginning to "relive the nightmare, to live the worst situation again." "We have started hospitalizing Covid-19 patients with severe respiratory failure . "
The nurse confessed in confusion, because he also received many more insulting messages on social media than solidarity. "I've even been called a terrorist," he protested.
The hospital's health director, Rosario Canino, said that for the first time in three weeks, "the intensive care room is no longer empty . " "In the past few days we have had a small surge of new revenue."
The Intensive Care Primary, Antonio Colluccello, responded to the demand of what is the situation if the arrivals of seriously ill patients continue to increase; “Regarding the beginning of the emergency, at the end of February, we now have more and better sanitary weapons at our disposal. We have experimented with new drugs and we all learned how to treat the disease. We are ready to face the situation ”.
