Non-pharmacologic measures for Covid-19 mitigation and dates of issuance in Italy.
Table 2.
Cumulative Incidence (CI) /100,000 of COVID-19 at date of National lockdown (March 11th, 2020) and after 2 months (May 11th, 2020), highest percentage Intensive Care Unit (ICU) bed occupancy, maximum ICU bed occupancy rate and mortality rate (May 11th, 2020) in Italy.
Fig 1.
Cumulative incidence of Covid-19 by region in Italy, February 19- May 13, 2020.
The vertical blue line is the National lockdown declaration; the green line is the end of our observation period; the red dash lines show the time range in which the number of new cases started to decrease.
Fig 2.
Daily reported new cases of COVID-19 by region and overall Italy, February 19-May 13, 2020.
The vertical green line is the time when new cases started to decrease.
Fig 3.
Delay of lockdown declaration and cumulative incidence of Covid-19 at May 11th by region-Italy.
The horizontal axis is the number of days between the date on which each the region reached the cumulative incidence equal to the lowest regional CI at time of lockdown and the date of lockdown; the vertical is the cumulative incidence of Covid-19 (May 11th) per 100k inhabitants; the size of bubble is proportional to the total number of diagnosed positives (May, 11th).
Fig 4.
Percentage of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) bed occupancy by region-Italy, February 19- May 13, 2020.
The vertical blue line is the National lockdown declaration; the green line is the end of our observation period; the red dash lines show the time range in which the number of new cases started to decrease.
