Rome (Italy), Aug 17 (EFE), (Camera: Álvaro Padilla).- Italy is fighting to prevent a second wave of coronavirus and to stop imported cases, which are a large proportion of new infections. Several major airports are already screening passengers arriving from countries considered at risk, including Spain, Greece, Croatia and Malta.FOOTAGE OF FIUMICINO AIRPORT, IN ROME, INCLUDING A PASSENGER STATEMENTTranslation: Claudio: "We've been waiting for about 2 hours. I think it's a fair measure, to put this kind of space inside the airport to be able to perform the tests. I've come from Ibiza."
Rome (Italy), 3 June, EFE, (Camera: Jorge Ortiz).- Italy is allowing free movement between regions and opening its borders to European Union countries as of Wednesday, after almost three months of closure due to the pandemic.

Ivan Bassato:"As of today, the Italian government has decided to remove some truly important limitations on the freedom of movement of people. Specific motivations such as professional, health and emergency reasons for moving within the country and the European Union are no longer required. We do not have many more flights than in previous days, but we see that there are more passengers because passengers can obviously move around more freely. We hope that during June there will be a progressive increase in these numbers, but we are still far from returning to how things were before the pandemic.""The current conditions would surely not allow us to manage the traffic levels we were managing last year in June. Fiumicino airport in June last year managed almost 1000 flights a day during the summer peak, almost 150,000 passengers. Today we will probably have about 10,000. We believe that with the current rules it is possible to grow by about 50 per cent of those numbers."
