May 15, 2020 Look at the updated data

The epidemic curve is decreasing in Italy, but deaths still remain above 200. Today there are 789 new cases - which, moreover, 55 Lazio cases related to recoveries of previous days should be removed - against the 992 yesterday, for a total of 223,885 infections since the beginning of the epidemic. With a positive / tampons ratio dropped to 1.15%, never so low: now, in essence, out of 100 swabs made almost 99 are negative. 

These are the data that emerge from the daily Civil Protection bulletin.

The number of deaths is still high: 242 today (slightly down from 262 yesterday), returned to above 200 for two days after several days of smaller numbers. The total number of victims thus rises to 31,610. On the other hand, there is a boom in recovery: 4,917 in one day (yesterday 2,747), with the total exceeding 120 thousand (120,205). As a result of these data, there is a net drop in the number of currently positive ones: -4.370 (yesterday -2.017) which brings the total to 72.070.

The reduction trend in hospitalizations has been confirmed, which has been constant for almost six weeks: those under ordinary regimes register 661 fewer units (10,792 in total) while intensive care units decrease by another 47 units, going down to 808. Finally, people in home isolation are 60,470. There are 2,875,680 total swabs

In detail, the currently positive cases are 27,746 in Lombardy, 11,113 in Piedmont, 6,001 in Emilia-Romagna, 4,439 in Veneto, 3,168 in Tuscany, 2,603 ​​in Liguria, 4,088 in Lazio, 2,795 in the Marche, 1,736 in Campania, 2,181 in Puglia, 406 in the Autonomous Province of Trento, 1,760 in Sicily, 741 in Friuli Venezia Giulia, 1,454 in Abruzzo, 359 in the Autonomous Province of Bolzano, 90 in Umbria, 461 in Sardinia, 77 in Valle d'Aosta, 505 in Calabria, 227 in Molise and 120 in Basilicata.
