The vast majority, 12,410, are self-isolating at home with only minor or no symptoms.

Out of 45,931 tests over the last 24 hours, only 188 came up positive.

Of those, 67 were in Lombardy, 47 in Emilia-Romagna, 19 in Lazio and 10 in Veneto.

It’s worth noting that even in Lombardy, 21 of the positive tests were for antibodies, so with no symptoms and potentially historic infections.

All the other regions had single figure new positive cases, including zero in Sardinia, Umbria, Valle d’Aosta and Molise.
