At the moment we are working with the Regions and Municipalities ”. Roberto Speranza, Minister of Health and champion of the long war against pandemic from the line of “maximum prudence and caution”, for now it excludes any type of national intervention. And does the same Giuseppe Conte which speaks of “localized restrictive measures”.

The strategy of the prime minister, who over the weekend rejected the request of the Democratic Party and Hope for a new and rigorous repression throughout the country to try to stop the increase in infections, in fact now is clear: do the “work dirty ”, the most unpopular, to regional mayors and governors maintaining“ national coordination. ”And the operation is currently succeeding: after Lombardy, Campania, Piedmont and Liguria have decided on restrictions. And other Regions and Municipalities will follow between today and tomorrow. “But please do not talk about the blame game,” says a 5Stelle exponent very close to Conte, “it is just and sacrosanct that the local authorities have to decide: they are fully aware of the situation, they know the conditions healthcare system. local and intensive care, the type and number of meetings in their territory … ».
Soon, however, “in about ten days or two weeks, as soon as we see the further developments of the epidemic,” says a government source dealing with the file.COVID-19, “If the situation does not improve, a provision for the entire national territory will be essential to standardize the measures taken in the meantime by Municipalities and Regions. The advance of the “curfew“At ten o’clock at night, in order to further reduce the chances of contagion caused by nightlife and dinners with friends or family which, as statistics attest, are the source of 75% of infections: at home and on the tables of the restaurants, they lower the masks and the fenders … Then, if this is not enough, they will advance at 9 pm as they did in France ».
In short, we will go “step by step”, hoping that in the next few days the first encouraging sign in weeks will be confirmed: the positive cushion ratio fell yesterday from 9.4 on Monday to 7.5%. Meanwhile, it is Speranza, together with the Minister of Regional Affairs Francesco Boccia, who guarantees the coordination and direction of the territorial strait and introduces those precautions and restrictions that were denied to him on Sunday in the last Dpcm. The telephone number of the person in charge of Health yesterday “boiled”, as one of his says. Telephone calls with Enzo De Luca and Giovanni Toti, governors of Campania and Liguria, with the mayor of Genoa Marco Bucci, with the president of Piedmont Alberto Cirio, and with other mayors and regional leaders. Speranza analyzes the situation with her interlocutors, evaluates the conditions of intensive care, the contagion index. In the end, it suggests the measures to be taken based on the level of risk and the degree of saturation of the Covid-Hospitals. Because everything starts from here: preventing and avoiding the collapse of local health systems. And, where possible, try to continue contact tracing of those infected to limit (where possible) the spread of the virus.
It is no coincidence that Conte, in addition to pointing the way to “national coordination”, speaks of “constant dialogue and collaboration between the Minister of Health and local authorities.” And, between seeing and not seeing, it again excludes a emergency shutdown national as happened between March and May: «We are in a different situation than the first wave, we cannot repeat the same strategy. Last spring we were not prepared, we lacked masks, ventilators, medical equipment and we found ourselves in a generalized lockdown. Now the situation is significantly different, we have strengthened the National Health Service, we distribute 20 million masks every day. That is why the restrictive measures are and will be localized, decided at the territorial level by the presidents of the regions or by the mayors. What if I made mistakes? I am not infallible, but we avoid emotional reactions.
Above all, the government is determined to avoid a generalized lockdown because, as Vice Minister of Economy Antonio Misiani says, “it would be a fatal blow” to an economic recovery that has already stuttered again due to the virus. And because, after the 100 billion allocated between March and August to support the categories and productive sectors most affected by the epidemic, it would be decidedly difficult (with the debt already soaring) to throw a similar amount of resources on the plate.
