The latter is arguing a lot Dpcm released by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte. In addition to protests by increasingly desperate citizens, the prime minister must also face harsh judgment from doctors, who have categorically rejected another provision that came from above.
Immunologists, virologists and microbiologists who until now have worked hard to convey to the population the message that currently, despite the increase in infections, there is no emergency situation and it is necessary to remain calm and not give in to hysteria, have expressed a negative opinion on the new executive directives, declaring them useless and bad for the economy. Shortly after the conference held by President Conte, the immunologist Antonella Viola, from the University of Padua, wrote a long post titled “What to do (for those who tell me there were no alternatives)” on your Facebook page. After reiterating her opposition to unjustified closures, Dr. Viola spoke of concrete solutions, which include the identification of real places at risk of contagion and the implementation of measures to allow the reopening.
More worried Maria Rita Gismondo, Director of the Laboratory of Clinical Microbiology, Virology and Bioemergencies Diagnosis of the Sacco Hospital in Milan. Interviewed by “Dnakronos“, the microbiologist defined as”absurd“the measures taken by the government. “I don’t think they have a significant impact on the number of infections.”, he ruled, before nailing the executive.“Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said last week that a blockade would be disastrous. These measures actually create a blockade.” A useless Dpcm, according to Gismondo, given that the new measures will remove“only the possibility of an almost normal life, which we no longer have.”
The opinion of the director of the Infectious Diseases Clinic of the San Martino Hospital in Genoa was also negative Matteo bassetti. Talking to The air that pulls, the doctor gave a very critical opinion on the measures taken by the government.“I didn’t say you don’t have to make decisions”stated the infectious disease specialist, “But closing at 6 in the morning I don’t think it will give results. Let’s go and protect the people most affected by this virus. I have hospitalized young people, but fortunately after 2-3 days they manage to leave.”
The doctor’s comment was very harsh Alberto Zangrillo, head of the anesthesia and general and cardio-thoraco-vascular resuscitation and operating unit at San Raffaele hospital in Milan. “Whoever wanted to terrorize has won”he wrote on his Twitter profile. “We should not be afraid because, as has been said several times, we should not confuse the positive Coronavirus with the potentially infectious and especially infected patients.”, he reiterated once again during an interview with Rg5.“People are puzzled, terrified and scared. They misinterpreted the concept of tampon for which there is a rush to clean as if it were a therapeutic measure.”he added.“Actually, now the problem is first aid, we have floods of people arriving and we cannot control them. Of these, 40% could stay safely at home if they are helped, if they are encouraged, if they are informed “.
Once again, Dr. Zangrillo asked for calm. “I trust that effective responses will be given, taking into account that there is a climate of terrorism which is absolutely unmotivated and very dangerous “, has declared.
Very against the new closures too Giorgio Palù, Professor of Microbiology and Virology at the University of Padua. Interviewed a few days ago by “Corriere”, the virologist said that he was not in favor of new confinements.“I am against as a citizen because it would be suicide for our economy; as a scientist because it would penalize the education of young people, who are our future, and as a doctor because it would mean that the sick, who suffer from other diseases, especially tumors, would not have access to import “, has declared. “All this in the face of a disease, Covid-19, which, in short, has a low lethality.”
Conte’s Dpcm was also incredibly rejected Walter Ricciardi, consultant to the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza. However, Ricciardi did not object to the new closures, but to the ineffectiveness of the new measures, which he instead considered insufficient. After invoking localized blocks, the doctor stated:“Neither the state nor the regions have had the courage to make decisions that anticipate the virus, do not pursue it.”
