ITALY (Botteghino): 'Kung Fu Panda 4' stronger than predecessor

[Omni]

Lombardia closed all theaters, and the region alone represents 1/5 of the national box office. Emilia Romagna did it too, and Veneto is the next. Like in SK, some movies' release date has already been delayed. In the areas more hit by the virus, the box office was down 80/90% from Saturday, which was already down from the norm.

 

Btw, it's 229/6 now.

Take care man. I hope you have stocked up food and stay indoors. I hope the situation is under control soon. For that we need people to behave in a responsible manner than government putting in draconian measures. Dont know if that is possible in Italy.

Just hope it becomes controlled. Already said, but BO is the last of our concerns.

Thanks! I've been in the hospital for five weeks, and as soon as this segregation ends a new one will certainly come. Oh well.

Yeah, people's behavious is more important than anything. And yesterday there were 20000 people in Venice for the Carnival. Not exactly the kind of attention one would expect under this situation. Many of them probably got caught by this collective psychosis last night and emptied the supermarkets this morning.

Do you believe the government is doing the right things at this point. If they dont have it under control then its terrible. 

[Omni]

Right now, they're handling the situation quite properly I guess (as much as I know). Also, the wave of alarmism created by the media can only help the containment (of course on the other hand it causes an irrational hysteria, but I guess you can't have one without the other, unless you're maybe Japan).

 

That said, these measures have been taken too late. Controls were very scarce until a week ago. So scarce that an Italian guy denounced that he had to put himself under isolation for 2 weeks after coming from China in early february, as at the airpoirt no control was made and authorities just ignored him.

Progression of the virus. We just had a very very bad day yesterday with 566 new cases.

 

Overall 4-day weekend admissions around 300K, most likely a record low outside of summer. 2020 still over 2019, but that's going to stop soon.

an entire region in lockdown, The situation is not good.

i am in quarantine! @Omni you?

[Omni]

Still in the hospital, entered 8th week. Got a flu on Monday, doctors requested a tampon and it turned out to be negative.

I'll likely put myself in quarantine as soon as I get back home.

Tests are being done with tampons? what the hell?

[Purple Minion]

I think it's a cotton swab ("tampone" in Italian).

[Omni]

Yes, my bad.

[Omni]

That's a pretty terrible death ratio...sigh...

 

I have serious heart problems. So if I suddenly disappear from this forum, you know what happened. 

[Legion Again]

Yes, unfortunately the CFR of 5% suggests that there are probably still many undiagnosed cases. Containment failure at this point seems pretty clear, and health infrastructure failure is following. But Spain/France/Germany/UK/US don’t seem to be learning the right lessons from Asia and Italy.    
 

Wishing the best for all Italian members of our little community.
