Quick swabs can be made at the pharmacy. This is what the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, said during the meeting with the Regions announcing the beginning of an experimentation phase: “In the pharmacy, serological tests are already being carried out in some regions, let’s try to do an experimentation as is happening in Trento to make antigenic substances also in the pharmacy “. Speranza then agreed with the Regions, who asked to simplify the monitoring procedures.
In this sense, family doctors, the State-Regions conference and the unions are summoned on Monday for an agreement on rapid tests for general practitioners. The new legislation provides for the voluntary adherence of white coats and a possible contractual addition to the collective bargaining agreement for GPs.
In addition to sanitary and monitoring measures, other specific closures may soon arrive. Today Walter Ricciardi, Professor of Hygiene at the Catholic University and advisor to the Minister of Health said: “We are facing an exponential trend because we have not done what we should have done 2 weeks ago – said the expert – in metropolitan areas there is a transmission index 2.3, it means that the doubling of cases can happen day by day, as we already started to see in Lombardy. Two weeks ago I said that we were traveling on a razor blade and had 16,000 cases planned before Christmas. But we had them yesterday “.
Thus, if three regions (Lombardy, Campania and Lazio) already have a curfew, others, such as Piedmont, have more articulated forms and others such as Sardinia evaluate a total closure of 15 days.
Political leaders
At the political level, the leaders and mediations continue: the representatives of the government of Boccia and Speranza, the head of Civil Protection Borrelli and the presidents of the Regions are meeting to evaluate, among other things, whether to hire health and socio-health workers that help ASL in locating contagions. It also evaluates whether movement between regions should be avoided and in this regard the President of Veneto, Zaia, said: “Thinking about stopping the passage between regions means closing. Better the mask for citizens, instead of thinking about the borders of the regions or mini-enclosures to put your heart at peace “.
The school
The Minister of Education, Lucía Azzolina, asks that the school not pay first and wrote to the governor of Lombardy, Fontana, to seek “solutions other than the one adopted.” In the region, in fact, the president has ordered the closure of face-to-face classes for high school. The minister sent the same letter to the president of Campania, De Luca, who has closed schools of all levels.
Self-certifications and sanctions
With the self-certification slogan back, many wonder if, as it happened last March, the police will be able to provide the forms at this time.
