Krema, Italy - An open society in isolation: it's almost an oxymoron, a mind game. Until it happens, and life suddenly changes. It's happening to me, and to all Italians. Starting from the north, where I live, and now across the country. Everything is closed: no more school, no meetings, parties, cinemas, theater shows, no sports activities. There are no bars and restaurants open. No shops are allowed to open, except for groceries and pharmacies. As of Thursday across the country, 15,111 people have been affected by the coronavirus (about half of them are in hospital); 1,016 have died, and another 1,258 have recovered. The slogan of the day of the Italian government is summed up in just 3 words: "Stay at home".

Under my window, retirees usually gather to catch the first rays of the day. Today, the sun heats the bricks of the cathedral, "disturbed" only by a cyclist pedaling through Torraco's gate. Apparently it's a woman. Although it's hard to say for sure because of the mask on his face. Even the church bells ring differently in the empty silence around. Even when people go out, they greet each other from a distance. Normally they meet cordially, shake hands, kiss and hug. Italy is a very close contact society.
