Italy's outdoor COVID face mask
mandate is to be extended for another 10 days and discotheques
will remain shut, the cabinet decided Monday according to
government sources.
Boosting the post-COVID economy recovery is a government
priority, and also for newly re-elected president Sergio
Mattarella, Premier Mario Draghi said.
Voicing satisfaction that GDP rose 6.5% last year, the highest
gain since 1976, Draghi said it was due to support for the
economy and the success of the vaccine rollout.
He added that cabinet would meet again on Wednesday to review 45
targets in the EU-funded post COVID National Recovery and
Resilience Plan (NRRP), worth a total of over 24 billion euros.
