The information that I've understood from the TV news and online
newspapers is that Italy is not "closed".
If you sign a document showing that you're moving around for work,
they you are allowed to move. For fun not.
Don't take my above sentence literally. Is my personal summary of how
they "close" the country. In fact it has been said that restricting
movement of people is against constitution unless the martial law is
declared, because the government could only impose that if doing an
analysis you have the virus, which for me, makes a lot of sense
then.
Jordi, I think since you posted that particular situation of Italy
closure might have changed for the worst.
I can tell that France said initially that all routes waterways and
airways open to Italy. It then changed to some of them being closed
(notably the airways).
I can tell that in Romania it is said all ways closed to Italy.
I can tell that other countries made similar statements in recent days,
towards closure.
I can also tell I understand the reasoning behind you mention when you
say allowing only business travellers (no tourist). It might be the
case. But in the end, I do not see why business travellers would be a
different kind of humans, medically speaking.

No, it's a realistic decision. A vaccine is likely a year-ish away
barring a serendipitous breakthrough. Italy shut down the entire
country effective this morning. US Universities and colleges are
sending their students home. And so on -- because the only viable
method available for slowing the spread is social distancing.
COVID-19 will still propagate, but it will propagate more slowly,
flattening the demand curve for medical resources, including
personnel, hospital rooms, ICU space, etc. (And those of us in the US
had better hope that works because the current infection rate
projections look ominous circa March 20 and the testing rate is
orders of magnitude below where it needs to be.)
Everything done before a pandemic looks like too much, everything
done after it hits looks like too little.
