Nino Cartabellotta, the president of
the GIMBE health foundation, on Tuesday blasted the new
government measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 as being
too bland.
Among other things, the government has recently banned amateur
contact sports, forced bars and restaurants to close at midnight
and made it obligatory to wear facemasks outdoors after a sharp
rise in cases.
"The decision not to introduce more drastic measures to protect
the economy highlights the 'non-strategy' of planning
restrictions on the basis of the daily (contagion) numbers, with
measures that are too weak with respect to the advance of the
virus," Cartabellotta said.
