So it's OK to make even more people die? I'm sorry but Italy is not over-reacting, prevention is fundamental in an outbreak. Btw, I'm also from Italy, and I'm happy that all the concert/events that I had to go in February/March are cancelled, health first.

I am not paying a visit to my elderly relatives. Nor do I work in healthcare nor elderlycare. So the risk of me infecting a person from a risk-group is pretty non-existant. If someone in such a group is visiting a music festival, that is the risk they are taking. Time will tell how much the overreacting will cost italys economy. It looks like it is going to be pretty bad. Tourism alone is going to cost big figure numbers.
