Northern Italy affected by a wave of Covid-19 contamination

Two regions of northern Italy were struck Friday by sixteen cases of contamination with the new coronavirus. Ten cities in Lombardy have decided to close public places.

In one day, sixteen additional cases of Covid-19 contamination were discovered in northern Italy. Authorities announced on Friday, February 21 six new cases in the Lombardy region, the first due to human-to-human transmission in the country. A few hours later, eight more cases were confirmed, including five involving medical personnel. The Italian news agency Ansa reports two cases in Veneto (north-east).

Ten cities close public places

Ten Lombard cities decided on Friday to close all public places. The small town of Codogno, near Lodi, is the first to take this step. It was here that the first Aboriginal home was identified. He is a 38-year-old man in intensive care. His wife and a friend with whom he played sports are among the known cases.
