The Lombardy Region is moving forward with its ordinance that allows for full occupancy of seats on regional trains but is convinced that an agreement can be reached with the government at the State Regions conference. "An agreement will be reached on Thursday," said Councilor for Transport Claudia Terzi. Meanwhile, tickets on Frecciarossa trains leaving Milan for southern Italy next weekend are almost sold out. There are 159 contagions from Covid in the last 24 hours in Italy, further decreasing compared to the previous day. Health Minister Roberto Speranza claims that without the lockdown the spread in Italy would have been higher while Matteo Salvini returns to the question of mask and underlines: 'It is used when needed'.
