Giuseppe Zuccatelli leaves. Even before you start to put your hand Calabrian Health, the commissioner ad act, named just a week after the case Saverio Cotticelli, takes a step back after an interview with the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza. While calling on the government to designate Gino strada There are more and more and the majority unite, the newly appointed had distanced himself from his last May sentences against the masks and declared of “still be without an appointment decree“That will never come: Zuccatelli has indeed resigned his position never formalized, in addition to the previous ones as commissioner ofCatanzaro Hospital He was born in Mater Domini University Polyclinic, always in Catanzaro. “With the same speed with which I accepted, I resign at the request of Minister Esperanza respect that I have and have always had for the institutions ”. Not only had the 5 stars downloaded it in the last few hours, but also Matteo renzi me Leu, a party for which Zuccatelli ran in 2018 and which is considered very close to the elected commissioner. the government you are now working on the new appointment. Among the names, in addition to Strada, there are also rumors of the former rector of the La Sapienza university Eugenio Gaudio, doctor and calabrian. According to the latest rumors, confirmed byAdnkronos, Gaudio would go on to occupy the position of commissioner, while the founder of Emergency would have the role of External consultant. A kind of tandem.

Zuccatelli had never spoken since the appointment was announced (about a week ago). In the morning he had decided to break the silence with an interview with Tgr Rai Calabria, denouncing that “he has not yet received the decree of appointment”: a passage that had left pending deliveries with his predecessor Cotticelli. So while Gino strada complains of having been contacted by the government (and by the prime minister himself Giuseppe Conte), but if no formal proposals have yet been made, the health management situation in Calabria remains paralyzed. The impasse seems to have been released after a phone call from Minister Speranza, since Zuccatelli had announced: “I I don’t quit spontaneously of the position for which I have been appointed, but if the minister asks me, I am willing to do so.

Still in the Tgr Calabria, Zuccatelli had also spoken of the controversies that affected him. In this regard, he said, the video in which he said that masks are not needed and that to get infected you need a kiss with the tongue for a quarter of an hour “definitely silly“But he was also acquitted:” At that time we were in the first phase of the pandemic, “he said without recalling, however, that the statements date back to May and therefore not even the beginning of the spread of infections. “I am not a denier”, the Commissioner reiterated, “and there is no doubt that the More expensive am indispensable, like keeping your distance and washing your hands frequently. What I’m wondering, though, is why that video was released right after my appointment. However, I will not be martyred for a 20 second video. Just as they are not going to describe me as a mockery ”. However, Zuccatelli did not explain another slip in which he became the protagonist not in May, but at the latest on Friday when a request for clarification from a correspondent of Title V (the program of Rai3 who had already been “responsible” for the expulsion of his predecessor, Saverio Cotticelli) had responded about WhatsApp with a link you posted to the right-wing nationalist site Imolaoggi which reported a controversial study against masks.

Today the leader of Italy Long Live Matteo Renzi: “If Gino Strada is really willing to be health commissioner in Calabria – he wrote on Facebook – the prime minister and the health minister can only do one thing to remedy the Cotticelli-Zuccatelli mess: sign the appointment of Gino Strada today as health commissioner in Calabria. Accompany him physically to Catanzaro. And give him all the powers. “But also for the senator of Leu Loredana De Petris, a member of the party believed to be close to Zuccatelli, asked the executive for a position: “The government must now break the delay and immediately understand the will confirmed by Strada to accept the post of extraordinary commissioner of Calabria.” The national spokesperson for the Italian left joined De Petris Nicola Fratoianni: “I said it immediately and today I repeat it. The appointment of Zuccatelli in Calabria is a mistake that should have been corrected. Now we discover that Gino Strada has given his availability by asking for one simple and simple thing: not to be the subject of a front operation and to have a clear mandate. What is the government waiting for? Name it immediately. “

The president of M5s of the Antimafia commission also returned to the appointment Nicola Morra: “The simple fact of mentioning the name of Gino Strada for Calabria has already produced a small, big, huge change,” he said. “Politicians from often opposing sides and newspaper journalists with opposing editorial lines are united for the first time: they are all calling for the Prime Minister to appoint him as Calabrian Health Commissioner. Gino Strada’s is a name that unites. Because it is one competent person and free from party schemes. Because over the years it has become a symbol of an Italy that puts values ​​before profits. His appointment would not serve anyone’s private interests. Only those, legitimate because they are constitutionally guaranteed, of the Calabrians ”.
