There are just a few days left until 6 December, the day on which the obligation to have a vaccine or negative swab will be triggered even on urban public transport . For the checks, writes the Interior Ministry in a note addressed, among others, to the Prefects, the "contribution of the managing bodies" of the Tpl "will be" decisive ", in particular through their staff assigned to checks, in possession of the qualification of charge of public service ".

We need careful planning then between the various law enforcement agencies. The document "reaffirms the need for the police and the carabinieri to direct their respective activities, with the necessary help of municipal police operators, primarily in the local public transport sector".

In the sector of public establishments and catering, on the other hand, "the control activity of the municipal police must be considered".

Furthermore, controls on public transport must be implemented in such a way as to guarantee the fluidity of the service. The Interior Ministry recommends that the methods of carrying out the checks, "whose flexibility and adaptability to the various contexts is confirmed by the provision that allows them to be carried out even on a sample basis, do not compromise the need for fluidity of the service, especially in order to avoid, especially in the transport possible gatherings and possible consequences of public order ".

It also calls for the strengthening of the Green pass control activity on weekends and in particular in the nightlife areas and in those with "greater concentration of commercial establishments".

"It is clear that the need to strengthen the verification activities, of which the broad spectrum must be kept in mind, concerning both the different areas of application of the Green pass and the set of other epidemiological containment measures - reads the document - , should be placed above all in conjunction with weekends, marked by a notably higher movement of people. The intensification of services must therefore be particularly taken care of in urban areas with a greater concentration of commercial establishments and in those characterized by the phenomenon of nightlife. implementation logic, control services linked to the Christmas and end-of-year holidays will also be planned ".

TOWARDS DECEMBER 6 - The provincial committees are meeting in these hours to fine-tune the organization and there will be a possible new meeting of the prefects with the Ministry of the Interior before next Monday. From that date, the "basic" pass (obtainable with the swab) will be required in hotels, public transport and changing rooms. Instead, it will be mandatory in an enhanced version (with vaccination or recovery from Covid) in clubs, bars and restaurants. Masks as always mandatory indoors and, in several cities, also outdoors where required by local ordinances.

The same Regions in the guidelines just approved highlight "that in the current phase in which the vaccination campaign is underway and the international scientific indications do not exclude the possibility that the vaccinated subject could become infected, even without developing the disease, and spread the contagion, presentation of one of the Covid-19 green certifications does not replace compliance with the measures to prevent and combat the spread of the infection, such as in particular the use of the mask indoors ". And "it is understood that on the basis of the evolution of the epidemiological scenario, the measures indicated may be remodeled, even in a more restrictive sense".
