The situation in Milan has gotten worse. Schools, universities and public places such as gyms, theatres, museums and cinemas will be closed for the whole week.
Everyone is panicking, the supermarkets are empty, there’s no one around the city, people are staying at home. Masks and disinfectants are sold out in every pharmacy or they’re being sold at crazy prices.
