COVID-19 Emergency In Rome
Flags on the windows as a sign of trust against the coronavirus on March 17, 2020 in Rome, Italy. The Italian government adopted the unprecedented measure of a nationwide blockade by closing all stores except essential services, such as pharmacies, grocery stores, hardware stores, tobacco shops and banks, in an attempt to combat the coronavirus epidemic (COVID-19), the second deadliest in the world, outside China. Inbound and outbound movements are allowed only for work and health reasons, proven by a medical certificate. The number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 coronavirus in Italy has risen to at least 27980, while the number of deaths has risen to 2158. (Photo by Andrea Ronchini/NurPhoto)
