> Italy has locked down 60 million people
Please don't exaggerate. In another thread here on HN someone from Italy posted exactly what it's like. They go for walks, they go to bars or restaurants and maintain 1 meter distance between people, and if they need to care for a relative or someone else they're permitted to travel to other towns/cities.
Sure, people's lives are a bit different, but say they're on "lockdown" is simply not true.
- dougmwne 7y agoThis is not an exaggeration. Just because people are flouting the lockdown does not mean it isn't serious. This is not "a bit different." The PM just raised the severity of the closures today: https://www.repubblica.it/politica/2020/03/11/news/coronavirus_conte_italia_governo_misure-250988471/ https://www.repubblica.it/politica/2020/03/11/news/coronavir...
