According to the Milan Sport newspaper, Italy's new measures on the prevention of the new crown epidemic will be approved, and if a team has at least 35% of the players who are positive for the new crown, then their matches will be automatically postponed.

In order to ensure the normal operation of the league, new measures on the prevention of the new crown epidemic have been formulated, and its draft will be reviewed by the Technical Science Committee, then submitted to the health department for approval, and an announcement will be issued after approval. It is currently only one step away from being approved.

The document further reduces the decision-making power of the Italian medical system in football and confirms that if a player is a close successor to a positive case, then he can continue training after the new crown is negative.

But in the Italian leagues at all levels, if at least 35% of the players in a team are positive for the new crown, then their matches will be automatically postponed. Reserve players are not counted.

If a player completes a 3-dose vaccination, they will be eligible to play, but must be "self-monitored". In addition, players who have been vaccinated for more than 120 days before they can undergo a 3-day soft quarantine before they can train and play, which is to urge players to actively cooperate with the vaccination work.

In addition, clubs will meet again tomorrow to study and discuss other rules (if more than 13 players are available, they need to play).
