Abstract: In Italy, as today October 26 the virus is circulating throughout the country. By a new decree of the Ministry of Health of October 25, 2020, authorities in Italy have suspended most of the recreational activities, like, cinemas, theatres, gyms and restaurants. Aim of this observational study was to evaluate environmental risk related to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Information questionnaire concerning the activities carried out during the last 14 days was proposed at 256 SARS-CoV-2 positive subjects. Among the SARS-CoV-2 positive subjects, 95% (213/226) never went to cinemas and or theatres, 93% (211/226) never went restaurants and 92% (209/226) never went to gyms. Our data strongly suggest that the virus infection rarely occurred in the considered environmental system.

Abstract: In Italy, as today October 26 the virus is circulating throughout the country. By a new decree of the Ministry of Health of October 25, 2020, authorities in Italy have suspended most of the recreational activities, like, cinemas, theatres, gyms and restaurants. Aim of this observational study was to evaluate environmental risk related to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Information questionnaire concerning the activities carried out during the last 14 days was proposed at 256 SARS-CoV-2 positive subjects. Among the SARS-CoV-2 positive subjects, 95% (213/226) never went to cinemas and or theatres, 93% (211/226) never went restaurants and 92% (209/226) never went to gyms. Our data strongly suggest that the virus infection rarely occurred in the considered environmental system.
