With the case of Calabria, the government ends up in the red zone – Il Tempo

Who knows what Jole Santelli’s face looks like up there. She will stare in disbelief at that Calabria tenaciously conquered before rising to heaven, and which has now been deliberately repainted red by the state. That Covid brand curse was compounded by irresponsible behavior that made the region hostage to various institutional follies. Nothing is normal, everything is grotesque, in this incredible Roman rather than Calabrian health story.

The disaster, for once, is not the fault of ordinary Southerners, but of those who have guiltily underestimated the alarms.

There are several serious things in the Cotticelli affair, the Calabrian health commissioner appointed two years ago by Count 1 and confirmed by Count 2 and fired within days.

Saverio Cotticelli, who had performed well in the Carabinieri, had been thrown into the fray as a solution of legality, said Giulia Grillo, who as Minister of Health at the time proposed his appointment to the Council of Ministers along with the head of the economy by Tria.

The other night the patatrac: the commissioner goes on television – in the “Title V” transmission – and comes out with a crappy “I don’t know anything” about the Covid plan.

That is, the priority that even determined the proclamation – with an extension – of the state of emergency, ignored by the commissioner appointed by the government.

Case of Calabria, the government tries to put a part: here is the new commissioner (positive for Covid)

Ex-Minister Grillo exploded. She tries to get the League involved in the date, but then goes wrong, because she admits that control over the job was up to her. And then Hope. However, in three months he did not find a second to explain to Cotticelli who should take care of Covid in Calabria. Yes, the general had written to the minister in charge …

Giuseppe Conte gets angry and hunts down the reprobate through Twitter. The prime minister looked like Trump yesterday morning, but Biden won … And he also received public rebuke from Carlo Calenda: “President Conte, this is a smart tweet but not a very serious one. You appointed the Commissioner. Verification of the work depended on his government. Pretending nothing is equivalent to trying to make fun of Italians. Unfortunately, this character trait is emerging more and more. Also because we wonder if Conte would have realized what is happening in Calabria without the television interview.

Because just a few days ago, on November 1, the government had confirmed Cotticelli in office. And the Lega has not existed for some time at Palazzo Chigi.

Minister Roberto Speranza will not breathe except to deny the name change. It must have been the Holy Spirit. And it would be necessary to ask him if it is true – as revealed by the MEP of the Calabrian League Vincenzo Sofo – that in mid-October he even ignored the resignation presented by Cotticelli who declared that he did not want to be used as a scapegoat.

Meanwhile, the commissioner resigns and the successor has been appointed late in the afternoon: it is Giuseppe Zuccatelli, positive for Covid since last October 29 …

On the other hand, this government mess resulted in the Calabria Region red stamp. And then they say that the state must go back to healthcare.

Poor the soul of Jole Santelli, who, a couple of months before his death, wrote to Conte on September 15: “It is necessary for Calabrians to know that the government is assuming all the responsibilities of the health management of Covid in Calabria and that the Region has been totally emptied. I am sorry after months of loyal cooperation, I just take note. ”Unfortunately Jole did not have time to read a response that never came, because the commissioner was removed from office.

But this time the Conte government ended up in the red zone.
