Italy registered 651 new deaths from Covid-19, though the daily toll is down from 793 the day before. Commenters note that the national lockdown imposed two weeks ago was expected to show results within roughly two weeks, so the falling numbers are being read as a first, cautious sign that the restrictions are beginning to slow the outbreak.

Why now: The first signs that Italy's lockdown is reducing deaths give people reason for cautious optimism during the pandemic.
