Which regions of Italy are affected by the coronavirus?
The map below highlights the regions of Italy most impacted by the coronavirus spread.
The northern region of Lombardy (dark red) continues to see by far the most cases as well as the most deaths from the virus, where hospitals are struggling to cope.
The northern regions of Emilia-Romagna and Veneto are, after Lombardy the most hard hit of the Italian regions.
The south of the country has seen fewer cases but the only region still without deaths, as of the 20th, is Basilicata. The heel of Italy, Puglia, have recorded 25 deaths so far.
All the current information about the virus is available here
According to the WHO more than 80 percent of patients infected with the virus have mild disease and recover, while 14 percent have severe diseases such as pneumonia. Around five percent of cases are considered critical.

The column coloured green is the number who have recovered (dimessi guariti), the red column is for the number of deaths (deceduti) and orange is for the total number of cases since the outbreak began, including, current cases, deaths and recovered.
The grey column on the far right, titled tamponi is for the number of tests carried out.
