In order to stop the virus spreading further, the Italian government's special scientific committee on Coronavirus publish on Wednesday a set of recommendations it hopes everyone in the country will follow.
The official advice states that people should avoid crowded places and keep “at least one metre” away from anyone else at all times.
The official advise is for all over '75s to stay at home and “avoid social contact”. Anyone over the age of 65 with health problems and people with respiratory conditions have also been advised to stay at home.
It is recommended that all football matches and other sporting events in Italy be played behind closed doors. This would include Serie A games, many of which have already been postponed due to the health ministry's recommendations.
The warnings are in place for the whole of Italy for the next 30 days, though they will be re-evaluated every 15 days.
