So it's being reported this evening that on top of existing measures people in Lombardy will no longer be able to exercise outdoors or use vending machines.
Now I understand the vending machines thing, but taking some basic exercise is good for mental health and physical wellbeing, and surely if taken in isolation will have a very low to negligible risk of contracting coronavirus. It will also limit people's intake of vitamin D by locking them indoors.
In the meantime, Italian supermarkets stay open, which I would suspect carries a far higher risk of infection.
Wouldn't it make sense to shut supermarkets and deliver rations rather than stop people exercising? This just doesn't make any sense.
This is directly relevant to the UK as it will probably be us in a week or two.
