Latest News as of March 12, 2020:
Coronavirus has claimed 1,016 lives in Italy, officials say,
Another 188 people died over 24 hours.
Two weeks after the first 10 towns in northern Italy were declared a “red zone” and put under lockdown.
This then served as a model to tighten measures across the country.
Italy has now seen 1,016 deaths, amid a total number 15,113 infections. Civil protection officials say 1,258 have recovered, although the number of cases has gone up by 2,651 since Wednesday. Italy is the world’s worst-hit country after China.
Italy was the first nation in Europe to be affected so badly.
Movement has been limited to urgent medical or professional need. All shops are now closed, except for pharmacies and those stocking food; companies have been ordered to shut non-essential departments; a wide range of venues – from theatres to schools and hairdressers to museums – are closed.
