Images show the scene outside Milan's Duomo Cathedral as swathes of Italy return to coronavirus lockdown in response to the resurgent pandemic continuing its march through Europe. Italy had been badly hit by a first wave, with images of swamped hospitals, makeshift morgues and intubated patients shocking the world. Experts say the country is now in the grip of a second wave after a sharp uptick in contagion numbers, and regions are again warning that intensive care units are filling rapidly. Five coronavirus "red zones" in Italy's north -- plus Calabria in the country's "toe" -- will shutter non-essential businesses, affecting 16 million people. IMAGES
Images from a deserted Piazza di Spagna as Italy's death toll tops 10,000 despite a 16-day lockdown. Its toll from the past three days alone reached 2,520 -- higher than the total number of deaths in the United States and France. Italy now looks certain to extend its economically debilitating -- and emotionally stressful -- ban on public gatherings and business closures past the April 3 deadline. IMAGES
The usually very busy Piazza Navona in Rome has been deserted by tourists and most locals. Italy has decided to close all stores except for pharmacies and food shops in a desperate bid to halt the spread of the COVID-19 virus that has killed 827 in the the country in just over two weeks. IMAGES
