«The color system against the spread of infections« I think it may have been useful in the autumn of last year. I also think that the measures in the midst of a pandemic must be modulated with respect to the current situation ». This was stated by the president of the Conference of the Regions, Massimiliano Fedriga, a Omnibus on La7, regarding the division into zones of Italy, based on the situation of the pandemic. “For example – he explained – in March 2020 national restrictive measures were useful. Today I think that no one should feel proven wrong if, with respect to the current situation, the spread of the virus but also the sharing of measures by the communities, different strategies can be found to be more effective “.
“Every choice involves a risk, it is clear that it is necessary to find balance, but with respect to measures written on white paper, it is necessary to understand if they are effective – underlined the president of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region -. The red areas that we have had, were not the lockdown of last year and there was less sharing by the citizens ». “It is not that we are looking at who commits a crime, but we are limiting the constitutional freedom of citizens, certainly for a good reason, but the measures must be widely shared” Fedriga continued. “Closing the hairdressers in the red zone – he said – led to that same activity carried out at home, for example. Is it better to have open salons where checks can be made or to a home business where everyone fails? “
On the restrictions front, Fedriga remarked that curfews and closing times “do not encourage bookings in the various tourist resorts”. For tourism «planning with acceptable times is fundamental. Yesterday with the Conference of the Regions we proposed to go and review the reopening of parks, spas and more, being able to anticipate it compared to July 1st “, otherwise” it simply means that they will not open the season “.
According to Fedriga, «it is important to have feasible but also planned dates. Even if it is not tomorrow, but if it will be in a week, 10 days or a month, let’s face it, because in this way you can make serious planning and give hope to citizens to be able to book, carry out their holidays and promote a tourism economy particularly affected in this pandemic ».
