The suburbs of Bollate, Liscate and Pozzuolo Martesana have been declared as 'red zone' due to the incidence of the contagion. Liscate and Pozzuolo, especially, are to be seen as 'buffer zones' in a landscape of freight transport and logistics in the eastern in-between of Milan

Furthermore, an urban-suburban dualism has been observed while assessing the impacts of individual features and socioeconomic status in the Provinces of Milan and Lodi (governed by ATS Milano Metropolitana in the health system)👇

What's the next? Developing a plan to 'save Milan':
"Closing the belt is the gamble feature to contain the increase of cases, while waiting the impacts of the new restrictions (i.e. orange zones)". This means 'preserving' Milan from what is occurring somewhere at its edges.

Finally, about the vaccination campaign, #Lombardia is going extremely slow (given the impacts of the past two waves). Some regions from Southern Italy are going faster (e.g. Basilicata). This is the grey area of Government's delegation to the Regions in managing the campaign.
