News Covid-19 area
Italy moves ahead with the roll-out of the digital document that makes it easier to access events and facilities in Italy and will facilitate travel in Europe from 1 July. All information can be found on the website www.dgc.gov.it
The epidemiological situation in Italy continues to improve. The incidence rate continues to fall, with the Rt value around 0.68. However, the circulation of highly transmissible variants of the virus mean that we must remain cautious in our individual behaviour
The incidence rate falls to 36 cases per 100,000 people, the Rt value is down to 0.68, the bed occupancy rate in health facilities and ICUs stands at 11-12 percent. All these are positive signs, but the circulation of variants of SarsCoV-2 means that we must remain cautious in our individual behaviour
The new measures allow entry from the countries of the European Union and the Shengen Area, as well as from Great Britain and Israel, with a negative swab test, without compulsory quarantine. The trials of ‘Covid-tested’ flights are extended to include Canada, Japan, United Arab Emirates, as well as to the United States
Incidence rate on a national scale continues to fall, but still remains high; we need to keep the mitigation measures in place and continue with the campaign to achieve high population vaccine coverage as quickly as possible
The incidence rate is just over 120 cases per 100,000 people, but this decreases in the over 80s, the first sign of the positive impact of the vaccination campaigns. The Rt has risen to 0.89 but is still below one.
A day to remind ourselves of the importance of this simple but essential action in the prevention of transmissible infections, especially in hospitals and health care environments. Seconds save lives - Clean your hands!
New cases in slight decline, with the incidence rate at around 146 cases per 100,000 people, Rt value stable at 0.85. Intensive care admissions are falling, down to 30%. The UK variant counts for over 90%.
