Italy's slowing COVID19 infections boost case for lockdowns

Italy's coronavirus infections rate slowed for a fourth successive day Wednesday as fresh evidence emerged that long and painful lockdowns against pandemics will work.

Analysts at one of the big US investment banks said evidence from Italy this week could determine whether much of the United States "will diverge or follow the Italian trajectory".Public gatherings have been banned and much of the economy is set to remain in a state of suspended animation for an indefinite time to come.But it is the price Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has decided to pay to slow the spread of a disease that has now killed 7,503 in Italy and infected almost 75,000.

The government-run National Research Council said 57 out of Italy's 107 provinces have already hit their peak of the virus spread.

Ingat lagi. 😘 OWWA? Sayang naman yong binabayad tuwing alis kami. I'm not sure how these things work, but I hope the shipping companies are compensating our government for the repatriation or assistance given to their Filipino crew members. Otherwise, they might abuse our kababayans because it doesn't come at a cost to them.
