ROME - The new Coronavirus infections of doctors, nurses and other employees of the National Health Service and of any other public or private health facility insured with Inail, which occurred in the work environment or due to the performance of the work activity, are fully protected as accidents at work. Iinsurance protection also extends to cases in which the identification of the specific causes and working methods of the infection is problematic. In addition, Covid-19 cases of outward and return journeys from the workplace are also protected, which therefore constitute commuting "accidents" . INAIL covers also for costs related to quarantine and home isolation.
