(ANSA) - BOLZANO/BOZEN, MAY 28 - "Italy is still a hotbed of
coronavirus, although in some regions the situation has improved
and the commitment is great," said Austria's health minister,
Rudolf Anschober, in an interview with the Oberoesterreichischen
Nachrichten daily newspaper. "I am a supporter of freedom of
movement, but with Italy, we still have to be cautious," added
the minister, citing 382 Covid cases per 100,000 inhabitants in
Italy against 55 in Croatia and 70 in Slovenia.The minister
underlined that for now, the negative test as an admission
requirement to enter Austria remains in force. Anschober does
not fear diplomatic discontent. "Slovenia indeed claims to have
positive data, but it is also true that it is easy to get to
Italy from Slovenia," the minister said. (ANSA).
