To “fully comply with the request” of the president of the Lincei, Giorgio Parisi “to take strict and drastic measures in the next two or three days” to “prevent the number of infections in Italy from inevitably arriving, in the absence of effective corrective measures , in the next three weeks, to produce several hundred deaths a day. ” This is how we read in the text of a letter-appeal that has just been sent to the Head of State Sergio Mattarella and the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, signed by more than a hundred scientists and university professors, including the names of the rector. from Normale di Pisa, Luigi Ambrosio and Fernando Ferroni, former president of the National Institute of Nuclear Physics. “As scientists, researchers, university professors – read the text that AdnKronos could see – we believe that it is correct and urgent to express our deepest concern regarding the current phase of spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and we believe that it is useful to inform the attention of the Institutions, the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella and the Government, in the person of Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, the estimates included in the article by the President of the Accademia dei Lincei, Professor Giorgio Parisi, published in the last hours in the Huffington Post blog. ”
“The necessary reconciliation of the needs of the economy and the protection of workplaces with those of containing the spread of contagion must now give way to the urgent need to safeguard the right to individual and collective health enshrined in art. 32 of the Constitutional Charter as inviolable “, warn the signatories of the appeal, among them Gianfranco Viesti, economist from the University of Bari, geologist Carlo Doglioni and president of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, Alfio Quarteroni, applied mathematician, Enzo Marinari, tenured professor of Physics at Sapienza, Roberta Calvano, professor of constitutional law at Unitelma Sapienza, Piero Marcati, vice-rector of the Gran Sasso Institute, Alessandra Celletti, astronomer, vice-president of Anvur.
“The protection of jobs, business and industrial activities, commercial establishments and other activities would also inevitably be affected by the result of an out-of-control spread of the pandemic that lasted many months – reads in the text sent to the Colle and the Palazzo Chigi – Taking effective measures now serves precisely to save the economy and jobs. The longer you wait, the more measures you will take will have to be tougher, last longer, thus producing a greater economic impact. “
That is why the contagion must be stopped now, with the appropriate measures, and that is why we ask to intervene now in an appropriate way, complying with constitutional guarantees, but in full protection of the health of citizens, which goes hand in hand and is also necessary and functional for economic well-being ”, conclude the scientists who have embraced the alarm raised in the last hours by the president of Lincei, Parisi.
