Naples. The mayor of Naples Luigi de Magistris recommends being very careful. Even in Naples, Phase 2 is being faced with many, too many unknowns, so the invitation is to be cautious. “Phase 2 is the most delicate because there is the risk of a backlash: if we are not good at being careful, we risk going backwards”.
Hsaid de Magistris, who spoke on “Mattino Cinque” and explained that, with schools closed and the absence of tourists, “it helps us that so many more people are not here today. There are people walking and we should not be surprised if we start to see the streets with so many people, it is physiological. Fortunately, people exist, they walk, they breathe and they want to walk. Let's not panic if we see so many people in the streets, because one thing is the crowd and another is the people who start walking”. In this sense, de Magistris reiterated “that this is the most delicate phase and we must tell people: no crowds, yes to physical distancing and masks, which in some places is also mandatory at all times, like in Campania. However, the bulk of them are not opening today, the bulk of them will be there on May 18 with the shops”. In this sense, speaking about the context of Naples, de Magistris underlined that "the suffering here is great because the bulk of the economy is commerce, craftsmanship, tourism, culture, small and medium-sized businesses, the circular economy of Naples. We need to be good at working well on phase 2 to restart in a big way in phase 3", he concluded.
