Health Minister Roberto Speranza said
Wednesday that the government is set to allow museums and sites
of cultural interest to reopen in regions that are 'yellow
zones', meaning the risk of COVID-19 contagion there is
moderate.
Italy's museums were closed during the initial coronavirus
lockdown and were made to shut again when the second wave of
COVID-19 took grip in the second part of last year.
Alfonsina Russa, the head of the Colosseum archaeological park
complex, said the iconic ancient Roman amphitheatre was gearing
up to reopen on Saturday.
