anti-gathering and anti-contagion rules for shopping centers

(one person every 10 square meters) and gyms.

The game rooms and bingo halls will be open from 8 to 21.



"The number of Covid positives is growing consistently even in our region with a high percentage of asymptomatic people - explained the governor during a press conference together with the junta - and it is therefore appropriate to introduce all those prevention actions that can slow down the epidemiological trend.

We absolutely want to avoid the lockdown in order to protect the health of citizens

, to maintain the health system and because we are aware of the devastating effects that would fall on economic activities. The ordinance has precisely this purpose: to prevent infections without damaging activities. The council has given itself three weeks. In this time frame we will see if we can contain the epidemiological curve with the actions implemented and in the meantime we will reorganize the school public transport to allow our children, as soon as the situation improves, to go back to school in person every day ".



In conclusion, Acquaroli made an

appeal to all the Marche

: "The self-discipline of each of us is essential - he said - Compliance with the rules of spacing, sanitation and personal hygiene, the use of masks are fundamental and for this reason the utmost attention is recommended to all ".
