Finally some good news. This is from the BBC
Italy has reported its first dip in new cases from the coronavirus outbreak.
On Monday, Italian authorities said there were 258 new cases of the virus - a 16% increase on the previous day.
The head of Italy's Civil Protection Authority, Angelo Borrelli, said the figure was "comforting" after new cases spiked by 50% on Sunday.
Monday's increase brings the total number of coronavirus cases in the country to 1,835. Of those, 52 have died and 149 have recovered.
Half of all confirmed coronavirus patients in the country have mild conditions and have been told to stay at home, according to Italian news agency Ansa.
Some 40% are in hospital and only 10% are in intensive care, Ansa reported.
Italy has the third highest number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the world, behind South Korea and China, where the illness originated in the city of Wuhan.
Italian authorities have responded with travel restrictions in the north of the country, with a number of towns in Lombardy in lockdown.
