“There is no comparison. In March we were hit by a tsunami, now we have ‘storms’ in some areas of Italy. In February we had a violent and immediate impact, for which no one could be prepared, “the Vice Minister of Health told Rai Radio1, guest of Un Giorno da Pecora Pierpaolo Sileri about your concern about the situation we see today in Italy, compared to last March. “Today what we see,” Sileri added, “is very diluted compared to the past, and we have to keep it diluted. What happened in February-March is different from what we see now: there are places in intensive care, we have many asymptomatic, there is no serious access to hospitals and emergency rooms, the numbers are contained ”. “A mask should always be worn in common places”. The Deputy Minister of Health, Pierpaolo Sileri, responds like this, on Radio Rai 1, to the question of whether a mask should be used in the gym, and especially in the changing rooms. Regarding the risk associated with going to the gym, he said during an interview with Un Giorno da Pecora, “where the protocols are respected it is minimally dangerous.” Compared to the use of public transport, often crowded in many cities during rush hours “, my mother – specifies Sileri – advice: when you go by public transport you put a surgical mask in your right pocket and a left Fpp2 or Fpp3. If there are too many people you wear the Fpp2. The mask is a bit like a sweater, if it’s so cold you wear it heavier “.
