ROME (AFP) Italy is facing “a new wave” of coronavirus infections, Prime Minister Mario Draghi warned Friday as his government prepared to tighten restrictions across most of the country.
Schools, restaurants, shops and museums are expected to close from Monday in the majority of regions, after Italy recorded almost 26,000 new Covid-19 cases and another 373 deaths on Thursday.
During a visit to a new vaccination centre at Rome’s Fiumicino airport, Draghi did not give details of the new measures but said his cabinet had agreed to adopt “appropriate and proportionate” restrictions.

On January 13 Matteo Renzi, the leader of the personal centrist party Italia Viva, withdrew his ministers from Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte’s second government. This triggered a crisis that ended Conte’s leadership.
Renzi was hoping to drive a wedge between the Democratic Party (PD) and its governing ally, the Five Star Movement (M5S), restoring some visibility to his ailing party.
Renzi managed to get rid of Conte, but he failed to give Italy a government that made a break with the past. Instead, as the dust has settled, crisis has given way to political continuity.
