【 摘 要 】

The Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious respiratory illness (Sohrabi et al.,2020) that following an initial outbreak in China is rapidly spreading worldwide. New positivecases are increasingly identified in a growing number of countries and the emergency has beenrecognized as a global pandemic (Coccia, 2020). To face and cope with such an unprecedentedhealthcare emergency, National governments have adopted specific strategies to limit thelarge-scale impact of the contagion (Parodi and Liu, 2020; Remuzzi and Remuzzi, 2020). Despitebetween-country differences exist (Chintalapudi et al., 2020; Roux et al., 2020; Tarrataca et al.,2020), these measures have generally changed from the initial attempts of containment to thesubsequent mitigation actions. Lockdown acts have been largely adopted to slow the virus spread, toreduce the demands of intensive healthcare, and to control the contagion rate in the medium-longperiod (Parodi and Liu, 2020).
