Three regions of Italy lifted restrictions imposed due to COVID-19

In Italy, the island of Sardinia and the regions of Molise and Friuli Venezia Giulia have moved into the white zone, where restrictions imposed in connection with the CORONAVIRUS pandemic are being lifted. A regulation to this effect has been published by the Italian Ministry of HEALTH.

“According to the decree of the President of the Council of Ministers, measures corresponding to the white zone are being applied in the regions of Friuli Venezia Giulia, Molise and Sardinia,” the message says.

The ANSA agency clarifies that curfews are lifted in these three regions and restaurants, bars, indoor pools, theme parks, fairs, and festivals are opening.

In March, Sardinia was already in the white zone for coronavirus. To receive white status, an area must have an infection spread index below one, and the number of cases per 100,000 population over the past three weeks cannot exceed 50. However, the island later moved into the orange zone, and on April 9 - into the red new infected, the newspaper Il Giorno reported.
