Discussion The community-based approach in Veneto appears to be associated with substantially reduced rates of cases, hospitalizations, deaths, and infection in HCWs compared with the patient-centered approach in Lombardy. In this observational study, we present the key elements of Veneto's community-based approach and compare rates of case-finding, number of cases, hospitalization, deaths, and health care worker (HCW) and non-HCW infections between Lombardy and Veneto. 10.20060707 doi: medRxiv preprint Health authorities in Veneto identified hospitals and convalescent centers that would care for COVID-19 cases, doubled the region's ICU capacity and obtained an adequate number of ventilators.	./cache/cord-310455-asu17dea.txt	./txt/cord-310455-asu17dea.txt
