Hospital closure at the fair? Gallera: «70 alternative beds are needed» – EcoDiBergamo.it

A request made months ago, about the future of the Bergamo Fair, and that arrived almost finished in summer, with an answer that is not even too definitive, if not in a fact, which is not negligible: infections throughout Italy are not They are precisely in a “quiet phase And, therefore, those beds, many of which are also equipped for intensive care, which are now empty, must in any case be kept in the account of availability in case of emergencies. Even if you have to think of alternative solutions.

This, in essence, is the line of the answer given yesterday by the regional councilor for Wellbeing, Giulio Gallera, to a question from the director of «Action», Niccolò Caretta from Bergamo. A question that arose before the summer. From the words of Councilor Gallera’s response, it arrived on Wednesday during the III Commission

, the future of the Fair is not yet outlined, but above all it seems linked to infections. That, if they continue to grow – specified in the statement issued by the Councilor for Action – they could block all the wishes and commitments acquired to free up space. But in the meantime, explained the councilor Gallera during the Commission of September 9, the Region continues to take measures to be able to “liberate” the Fair

: Spaces are sought – it is the “juice” of Gallera’s answer – for about 70 beds, which are currently available in the field hospital and which should be replaced in the eastern part of Lombardy, between Bergamo, before being dismantled. and Brescia.
