Bonaccini: “Concerned about infections outside Italy”
“I’m very worried.” Why the countries near Italy “have seven times more infections“So says the president of Emilia-Romagna and of the Conference of Regions, Stefano bonaccini, this morning at Bobbio in Piacentino to start of the planting of 4.5 million trees in the next five years in Emilia-Romagna. Bonaccini underlines the recent recognition received by Italy from the Financial Times on the management of the pandemic. But anyway “I am very worried – says Bonaccini – because when you are in countries with seven times more infections and the virus that circulates … We can’t close everything again, otherwise we will have an economic blockade. “For Italy, emphasizes Bonaccini, the latest forecasts give an estimate of a fall in GDP of around 9%. And it would also be good, compared to the 13% expected at the beginning”, says the president . By contrast, there are countries “like Great Britain, France and Spain” that have much higher declining estimates, Bonaccini says.
A new study commissioned by the Region to evaluate is underway in Emilia-Romagna the feasibility of a plasma production route, the fluid component of the blood, from patients and donors who have contracted Sars-CoV-2 infection then developing antibodies. Passive immunotherapy carried out with the use of plasma from cured patients – defined as hyperimmune plasma – could, explains the Region, “represent an approach to be considered in the treatment of Sars-CoV-2 infections, based on experiences from other countries, including China and the United States. ” The protocol, prepared by the Regional Blood Center and the Sanitary and Social Agency together with the Department of Health Policies, will enroll two groups of people on a voluntary basis: patients who have developed infection in very recent times, previously hospitalized or in fiduciary quarantine at home and currently recovered; and periodic volunteer plasma donors who contracted the infection asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic, identified among those that are presented for apheresis, that is, directed donation, only of certain blood components, such as plasma, periodically.
