Italy is at over
4000 covid-19 related deaths (people who died who are also positive to covid-19, not necessarily 100% caused by the virus itself, but as we all know it doesn't help for sure..)
627 reported deaths just for yesterday.
Now people can go outside (alone) to exercise - take walks - walk their dogs only in a 200 meters range from their home.
Cars with loudspeakers mounted going around the streets in my city (and I suppose in many other cities all over the country) telling people to stay inside.
There will be a consistent rise in checkpoints on many roads (with military personnell too) to check if people are going around with a "legit" reason.
A couple days ago in one of the most affected cities a column of military trucks filled with coffins transported bodies to be cremated elsewhere because there they can't keep up with the deaths.

Many families saw their relatives for the last time when they got transported to the hospitals and won't even be able to have a proper funeral.
I'm not panicking, but as you can see the situation here is pretty serious, and I think the quarantine will last waaaaay longer than most people expect.
News I heard / read on how the situation is dealt with / perceived by the population in many other countries don't make me feel that optimistic for the (future) situation overall in the world.
