Came across this Government link this evening that may assist you in making decisions on traveling to Italy. It’s being updated daily. Italy has done over 25,000 tests and the great majority of cases are still in Lombardy, Emilia Romano, and Veneto.
Everything here in Verbania on the west side of Lago Maggiore is normal. There are two cases in our Provence of Verbano, but not sure exactly what towns.
To add to Karen's helpful info. If you're traveling anywhere.
