Campania remains (for the moment) the yellow zone of moderate risk Covid. This is what provides the order signed at night by the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza. In the next few hours, however, the decision of the National Scientific Technical Committee is expected, with the control room of the Ministry of Health: in the center there will be the possible transition of the Campania region from yellow to orange or red. Meanwhile, among the critical issues on which Palazzo Santa Lucia works, is the increase in infections and the shortage of intensive care beds (but also anesthetists-resuscitators). While among the points “in favor” would be the low mortality rate compared to other regions. Today, the ministry technicians arrived in Naples to assess any deficits in the flow of epidemiological data.

Health Minister Roberto Speranza, it was said, signed the ordinance that night instead ordered the passage from the yellow zone to the orange zone of Abruzzo, Basilicata, Umbria, Tuscany and Liguria, which are thus added to the zone orange. in Apulia and Sicily, while the autonomous province of Bolzano has been declared a red zone. For Campania, in the next few hours, based on the evaluations made by the technicians, more news could arrive. Campania therefore currently remains in the yellow zone.

The president of the Higher Institute of Health, Silvio BrusaferroThis morning, at the press conference organized at the Ministry of Health on the analysis of data from the regional monitoring of the control room, the need for new measures in the event of progressive deterioration became very clear. Speaking of Campania, he says “we have reason to believe that the data is valid and we are working on this. We verify some conditions and by doing so we can collect new elements that could complete an analysis that is in progress.”

The transmissibility of the virus shows a deceleration in the Rt curve, which grows more slowly, but still remains at a national level at 1.7, with high risk. The battle to control the system passes mainly through the daily choices of each one of us. The triad of anti-Covid measures, mask, spacing and hand hygiene “must be respected on all occasions, daily and during the week: we know that this is the key that allowed us in March to quickly return the curve to a contained dimension. Ignore these rules individually and socially implies the need for more restrictive measures.

The rules of the yellow zone
