Northern Italy has been profoundly touched by the Covid-19 pandemic. To limit the outbreaks of contagion, the Italian government imposed 2.months of complete lock-down, which imposed the social isolation for the whole population and, for those positive to the Covid-19, the complete confinement at home.
