 Without the extension of the state of emergency "the technical-scientific committee would also cease to function, which in recent months has played an important role in supporting and motivating with scientific evidence, provided that it gives importance to scientific evidence" . This was stated by the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, in his communications to the Chamber. "The extension, if we purge the discussion from ideological positions, is an inevitable choice, in some respects obligatory, based on purely technical evaluations. I am not saying obviously that a political evaluation is precluded, indeed today it is requested of you, but I want to say that the government is carrying out this evaluation on the basis of mere organizational and operational issues, certainly not because we want to make instrumental use of a liberticidal attitude, repress dissent or reduce the population to a state of awe. These are serious statements that have no correspondence in the reality "Conte reiterated

" If you do not agree with the need to extend the emergency, say it frankly to the government but do not confuse the population, because today on social media there are some citizens who are convinced that they can extend the state of emergency means renewing the lockdown from August 1st. This is not at all the case.
 "" We maintain a cautious level of guarding, we do not intend to introduce restrictive measures, there is no intention to dramatize or feed fears "or" to create an unjustified alarm situation ".
