A small side note, although I know the US, or at least a large part of it, views its prison system in a somewhat different optic that may lead to perceive this as a minor problem.
Prisons by their very nature are a natural breeding ground for this kind of disease: closed spaces, crowding, difficult hygiene, naturally undisciplined characters, often compromised immune systems due to drug use etc. etc.
Here, recognizing this, special measures started to be introduced to put the prisons on an extra lock out, by completely suspending relative visits from outside and introducing a lot of extra strict measures.
This, combined with the panic for the incoming virus, have lead to a wave of prison revolts: there have been already about 20 inmates revolts in so many prisons, with many tens of dead (precise numbers yet to be made public, and many revolts are still ongoing) and even a couple of escapees (it does not help that our prisons have a 120% rate of overcrowding... 60k prisoners against 50k official places, but this is a different matter).
Anyway, as my usual update, we are at 10.149 infected and 631 dead, 168 more than yesterday.
There is a fall of the official numbers of new infected, but as i anticipated yesterday they are progressively stopping tests of the asymptomatic or even lightly symptomatic, if there aren't special reasons like professionals that have still to move: doctors,policemen, supplies delivery drivers, politicians, etc. etc.
If you are a normal citizen, presents light symptoms or have suspects you may have been in contact with an infected, but don't have more than 37,5°C (99,5 F, according to google) plus difficulties breathing, they simply tell you to close yourself in your home and stay quarantined till you either improve or worsen (minimum 14 days).
Oh, by the way: Lombardy region president asked the central government to introduce special even more strict rules for his region.
As the original hot spot, they are the most heavily hit, and their healthcare system is quickly overloading as the doctor themselves fall ill.
Anyway, the step they requested is to impose the closure of all shops apart for select grocery stores and pharmacies, and all offices.
We will see what will happens... even if they still send the occasional snide remark, all politicians both government and opposition are being quite unusually civil: it feels quite strange, honestly, and its more than a bit scary! :-p
