This morning the mayor of Milan, Giuseppe Sala, he defended the decision to institute an evening curfew taken by the Lombard mayors and the Lombardy Region: At this moment, he explains, there is a surge in hospitalizations in Lombardy except for three provinces, Bergamo, Brescia and Cremona, because there is a sort of immunity, but what price did they pay to get there? Milan cannot pay this price, due to its size it would have a huge problem. According to Sala, the strategy adopted in Lombardy is in line with that of other highly urbanized areas. And he cites, in this regard, the experience of some European capitals: This idea of ​​closing in the evening is not a madness born in Lombardy, today Paris in lockdown from 21 to 6 for a month, I was in London three weeks ago and at 22 restaurants close, Barcelona has malls closed for 10 days. When the virus breaks out in a big city it has a disruptive effect, he concludes, metropolises today have this type of risk. The mayor then turned to the over 65s: Stay at home right now, you see few people, unfortunately give up your loved ones, but you are the ones most at risk. A little while ago I spoke with Professor Remuzzi, explains Sala, who told me that in Italy there have been 36,000 deaths to date, and of these, 33,000 are over 65.
