The number of infected people who have died in Italy since the beginning of the epidemic in February thus rose to 37,921. 198,000 tests were carried out within 24 hours.
The number of confirmed active cases climbed to 276,457 on Wednesday, while the number of Covid 19 patients treated in hospitals rose from 13,955 to 14,981 compared to the previous day, the Italian Ministry of Health announced. There were 259,940 people in quarantine. There were 1,536 patients in intensive care units.
Italy has decided to further restrict public life in the fight against the rapidly increasing number of infections. Since Monday, bars and restaurants have had to close after 18.00 hours. Cinemas, theaters, amusement arcades, clubs, public sports facilities and swimming pools were completely closed. Italians are urged not to go out and to limit contact with people outside their own family at home. Nationwide protests have erupted against the measures, which are initially valid until November 24.
