Six regions in the balance

Everything will obviously depend on the data that will come out of the ISS monitoring. The regions are obviously confident that they can remain yellow.
Second houses: when and how we can go there
We must also keep in mind that in many territories there will be further restrictions (dark orange zones and red micro zones) compared to the national framework due to the spread of variants. This is the case of the Tuscany (in the orange zone) but with some cities where the red zone could even be triggered (this is the case of Pistoia and SIena, that go into lockdown). Then there is the case of‘Emilia Romagna dove Bologna from Monday 1st March goes to the dark orange zone after that already other 14 municipalities they entered this reinforced local band.
Fears also in Campania where the mayor of Naples Luigi De Magistris fears a return to the red zone.
Since when the changes
The regions that change zone tomorrow will enter the new one from Monday: the Minister of Regional Affairs, Mariastella Gelmini, confirmed today to the Regions that the ordinances will come into force on Monday and no longer on Sunday.
