The interior ministry on Thursday
sent out a circular letter telling Italian mayors to take action
to protect people who are elderly or vulnerable for other
reasons when they go to vote amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Sunday and Monday Italians will vote on a referendum on
whether to cut the number of parliamentarians and elections will
also take place in seven regions.
The letter suggested elderly and fragile people have special
mechanisms to access voting stations and should be able to get
assistance if needed.
