quote [ Italy Locks Down Much of the Country’s North Over the Coronavirus
The restrictions affect Milan and the regions that serve as Italy’s economic engine, and are the most sweeping measures outside China. ] Greetings from Milan, by an old timer Italian SEr.
What more can I say? We are officially confined.
It feels quite strange. I'll try to keep you informed, in case of remarkable developments (I spare you the superstitious gestures I'm indulging in as I type this: they are probably culturally untranslatable).

I wouldn't bee too optimistic; actually, we are doing too little and too late. The only approach strong enough for this situation would be the Chinese one: a little bit too totalitarian, for our western habits.
However, thanks. A lot. :)

[en passant: apparently, I can't mod the comments from the SEr fellows: is it a precocious symptom of the virus, or a technical issue? steele!]
