Corona Virus: Italian Sporting Events Will Now Hold Without Fans by SleakBuzzPR: 12:25am On Mar 05, 2020
Professional football matches and other big sporting events will now take place without fans present until April 3 said Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte.

The preventive measure is part of a new decree issued by the government hoping to prevent a further spread of the virus which has caused 3,089 infected cases and 107 fatalities in the country.

Conte posted a five-minute video on his Facebook page, reassuring viewers and saying that the decree was a way of assuring "responsible behavior."

He said banning crowds at sporting events would help "prevent further opportunities of infection."

All Italian schools and universities will be shut down from tomorrow until March 15 said Education Minister Lucia Azzolina.

The preventive measure comes as the death toll from the outbreak of the coronavirus has risen by 28 over the past 24 hours to 107 according to the Civil Protection Agency, with the contagion showing little sign of slowing.

Italy struggles with virus 'that doesn't respect borders'. The head of the agency said also that of those originally infected, 276 had fully recovered versus 160 the day before.
