Italian Health Minister Roberto Speranza speaks to reporters after European health ministers from neighbouring countries to Italy held a meeting to discuss Italy's coronavirus outbreak, in Rome, Italy, on Feb 25, 2020. ROME: Italy is to shut discos and clubs and make it compulsory to wear a mask outdoors in some areas during the night-time in the first reimposition of restrictions as cases of coronavirus pick up across the country, especially among younger people.

Masks will be required between 6pm and 6am in areas close to bars and pubs and where gatherings are more likely. Speranza on Saturday urged young people to be as cautious as possible as"if they infect their parents and their grandparents, they risk creating real damage".The government had kept clubs open despite mounting criticism that they attracted large crowds, that social distancing was not being respected and masks were not being worn.
