The nightmare of the coronavirus has returned. And the four deaths in 24 hours in Sicily prove it, in addition to the increasing number of infections.
To the victims registered in yesterday’s bulletin, which is a ninety-year-old from the province of Trapani and an 80-year-old man, hospitalized in Palermo with previous pathologies, and an eighty-year-old in the San Marco hospital in Catania who also suffers from other diseases , in the tragic budget. There is also a ninety-year-old man from Sciacca who died in his home.
The elderly man tested positive after a post mortem swab, so that, as Andrea D’Orazio explains at the Giornale di Sicilia on the newsstands, family members had to cancel the funeral ceremony, while some fifty people who had contact with the elderly are now in home isolation.
As for infections, the center of attention is all in Palermo, where yesterday the highest number of positives was once again registered. In addition to the outbreak of the Mission Hope and Charity, there is also a firefighter and the second employee of Amg Energia. But outbreaks are also growing in the province: in Bagheria, Belmonte Mezzagno, Corleone, and San Giuseppe Jato.
Not only the case of Palermo worries, but also the situation in Sciacca where the infected are 29 in total and among them there is also a newborn and his parents.
The mayor attributes the escalation of new cases to youth gatherings on weekends, following the cluster resulting from a marriage dating back to August 31. “Now – said the director of the Epidemiology Service of the ASP of Agrigento Gina Bosco – the new outbreaks are families, where the most exposed are the elderly.” Meanwhile, 120 families have asked the mayor to postpone the start of the new school year.
