MILAN (Reuters) – Italy will make testing for COVID-19 compulsory for people traveling from Paris and some areas in France, Health Minister Roberto Speranza said on Monday, amid growing concern over new infections in Europe.
“European data is worrying. Italy is doing better than other countries but we need to be cautious…”, Speranza wrote on Twitter.
French health authorities reported 10,569 new confirmed COVID-19 cases on Sunday, down from the previous day’s record increase of 13,498.
