ROME (Reuters) ― Italy's death toll from the coronavirus epidemic shot past 1,000 on Thursday as the economic impact worsened, with much of the country at a standstill and the Milan bourse posting its largest ever one-day fall.

코로나바이러스 전염병으로 인한 이탈리아의 사망자 수가 목요일 1,000명을 넘어서며 이탈리아가 멈췄고, 경제는 악화됐다. 이탈리아 증권거래소는 역사상 최대치의 일일 하락폭을 기록했다.


Looking to halt the spread of the disease, the government introduced yet more restrictions on Italians, ordering the blanket, nationwide closure of restaurants, bars and almost all shops except for food stores and chemists.

코로나바이러스의 확산을 막기 위해 이탈리아 정부는 식료품점과 약국을 제외한 국가 전역의 식당, 술집 등 거의 모든 상점의 폐쇄를 명령하며 이탈리아인들에게 더 많은 규제를 시행했다.


Most Italians were stoical in the face of the unprecedented disruption.

대부분의 이탈리아인이 전례 없는 혼란 속에 침착함을 보였다.


"The government is doing its best, we're in a war against an invisible enemy," said Rome delicatessen shop owner Roberto Castroni.

로마의 델리카트슨 식품 가게 주인 로베르토 카스트로니 씨는 "정부는 최선을 다하고 있으며, 우리는 보이지 않는 적과 전쟁을 하고 있다"고 말했다.


Highlighting the challenge facing Italy, the worst-affected country in Europe, the daily death toll jumped by 189 to 1,016.

유럽 최악의 피해를 본 이탈리아의 하루 사망자 수는 189명이 추가되며 전체 사망자 수도 1,016명으로 늘었다.


Confirmed cases rose to 15,113 from a previous 12,462, the biggest daily rise in absolute terms since the contagion came to light on Feb. 21 in the wealthy northern region of Lombardy.

확진 사례는 이전의 12,462건에서 15,113건으로 증가했는데, 이는 지난 2월 21일 북부의 부유한 지역인 롬바르디에서 첫 감염 사례가 밝혀진 이후 최대치의 일일 확진자 수 증가다.


In an ever-escalating series of measures to halt the spread, Rome's Catholic churches were ordered closed on Thursday ― an unprecedented move in modern times that will apply to more than 900 parochial and historic churches in the Italian capital.

코로나 확산 방지를 위한 일련의 대책으로 로마 가톨릭 성당도 목요일 폐쇄 명령이 떨어졌다. 이는 900개가 넘는 로마 교구의 성당들에 적용되는 전례 없는 조치다.


History was also made in the Milan bourse, which fell 17% for its worst single-day loss ever, underperforming a generally disastrous global market, as investors fretted over the huge, long-term cost of the coronavirus lockdown.

이탈리아 증권거래소도 이날 17%나 하락하며 사상 최악의 일일 손실률을 기록하는 역사를 썼다. 투자자들이 코로나바이러스가 가져온 봉쇄조치로 인한 막대한 장기적 비용에 대해 조바심을 느꼈고, 이탈리아 증시는 전반적으로 처참한 글로벌 증시를 밑돌았다.


The outbreak has turned Italy into a pariah state, with many countries severing transport links, leading to the cancellation of thousands of flights and the closure of some airports.

코로나19 발병은 이탈리아를 버림받은 국가로 탈바꿈시켰다. 많은 나라가 교통 연결을 끊었으며, 수천 편의 항공편이 결항되고 일부 공항이 폐쇄됐다.


Rome demanded that Austria lift "unjustified" controls at their shared border by Thursday evening after spot health checks on truck drivers causes huge tailbacks on truck drivers caused huge tailbacks at the Brenner Pass ―- a vital Alpine road link.

오스트리아로 향하는 이탈리아 트럭운전사들에 대한 건강 검진이 브레너 국경통과소의 엄청난 교통 체증을 일으키자, 이탈리아 정부는 오스트리아 정부에 국경 지역의 정당하지 않은 제재를 풀어달라고 요청했다.


"The block on Italian goods vehicles to northern Europe is causing incalculable damage to our exports and to European trade," business lobby Confindustria said in s statement.

이탈리아 기업가 로비 단체인 콘핀더스트리아는 성명을 통해 "북유럽으로 가는 이탈리아 상품 차량들의 차단은 우리의 수출과 유럽의 무역에 엄청난 피해를 주고 있다"고 밝혔다.


The streets of major Italian cities were largely empty on Thursday with most people heeding a plea by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte to stay at home.

주세페 콘테 이탈리아 총리가 국민들에게 집에 머물 것을 간청하는 가운데, 목요일 이탈리아 주요 도시들의 거리는 텅 비었다.
