In

corona


infections

.

government's

measures

against the

pandemic are

apparently

making themselves

felt.

According to the

Italian Ministry of Health

, the

reproductive

value has fallen

from 1.7

to 1.4

, as the authority's expert, Giovanni Rezza, announced on Friday evening.

The R value shows how many people a

person infected

with the

coronavirus

infects on average.

Rezza sees this only as a

first signal for a decline

in transmissions.

However, this could be related to the previous measures.

However, he was

concerned

about the massive increase in the number of Covid 19 patients in

hospitals

and

intensive care units

.

"That justifies further restrictive measures," said Rezza.

Corona in Italy: Economist criticizes the government's crisis management

Update from November 13th, 6 p.m.:

A South Tyrolean economist has sharply criticized

the Italian government's corona crisis management

.

“I understand the behavior of the political actors in March and April.

The situation was completely new.

I just wonder what exactly has been done in the last six months.

As far as the strategic tools are concerned, many countries are at the same point as in spring, ”said Christoph Kaserer from the Technical University of Munich to the daily newspaper

Dolomiten

.

As far as he is aware, promised financial aid for companies would only reach the applicants with a significant delay - Kaserer: "It is absolutely incomprehensible to me that it takes weeks, even months, to pay out subsidies."

The government of

Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte

had

recently approved 5.4 billion euros in further economic aid

due to the

Corona crisis

.

The money for

Italy is

entirely new debt.

Why is it normal to die in this condition, put away like an empty sack? ", The daily
