Hello from Covid19 Restricted Republic of Italy

in #health5 years ago

Greeting from Italy. A new decree established today the closure of every commercial activities in the Country - saved for articles of basic necessity. The previous decree said everyone has to stay home and is allowed go out just for work, health needs, emergencies, buying food. Italy is actually quarantined because of Coronavirus (CoViD 19).

People that need to go outdoor have to stay at least at 1 meter away from other people, wash their hands every time they touch something, go back home as soon as they can.

It looks like we are living in some distopic world, at the moment.

I know all of this is going to end soon but I don't think it will be ever exactly the same.

We are well, my family and I. We are calm - just a little worried, you know.

When all of this will be over, the economic recoil will be huge.

Sort:  

Hope you are all safe and feeling well!

It's interesting to hear from someone within the quarantine. I'm curious, with all this going on, do you know anyone who has actually gotten sick? The news over here keeps showing us all these reports of panic with nothing but talking heads and stock footage but I haven't heard one report from an actual doctor or patient.

I live in a little town and we have just 30 sick people from COvid19, no dead so far. In Italy there are 15000+ sick and over 1200 deaths. So, I don't know personally anyone who is sick but I know people in the medical staff who are very worried and have to do extra shifts.

Thanks for the report. I'm so glad you and your family are safe and well!

So what are italians doing all day? Just sitting in their homes and watching TV? sounds like something out of a dystopian novel

Yeah basically, I'm personally playing some games on Steam, I have a huge backlog there.

You need permission to move from city to city, it seems like a Hollywood apocalyptic movie.

Can you still order things online or do any sort of shopping? how will people get goods and services? I get the work from home crowd should be fine but thats a small percentage

I got a package yesterday, the "quarantine" is effectively in full effect starting from today 3/12 but I think goods and shipping will not be affected. In fact, I work in the logistic/shipping sector and the factory is open.

I don't know how the government can pretend to contain a highly infective virus by forcing people to "strictly move only to go to work or to the groceries store".

I guess they're just playing by ear, I don't think anyone knows how to handle it, no one is prepared we all just want to continue our routines and not used to this level of disruption. We have 13 cases now in SA, I'm sure it will be 500 in 2 weeks

I read books, play games, watch Netflix and work. I'm an artist, I can actually work at home.

But the end of all things has drawn near. Therefore be sober-minded and be sober unto prayers.(1 Peter 4:7)
