Police boost virus controls as Italians make bid for freedom

One month since the nationwide measures were enforced, Italy’s “Phase 2” plans for easing the lockdown have gripped the nation but also divided it.

In the wealthy northern Lombardy region, hardest-hit by a virus that has claimed over 17,500 lives nationwide, traffic was up over 10 percent compared to a week ago. Local authorities described that as “alarming”.Officials there fear that the coming Easter weekend might encourage people to flout the ban on leaving the house except to shop for essential food or medicine, or for work.

The governor of the Veneto region Luca Zaia said Wednesday he had “a plan ready to help businesses open again, while protecting workers’ safety”. He was just waiting for a green light from the government, he said. “Today’s figures show we’re not yet seeing a clear decline ,” the World Health Organization’s deputy director Ranieri Guerra told journalists.
