Not even 24 hours after the warning of the Minister of Regional Affairs Francesco Boccia – which asked the Regions not to launch “in the race of a who comes out firstFrom the red or orange zone – the governor Attilio fontana affirms the deceleration of the curve in Lombardy. “Our Rt has dropped substantially, so much that, according to the numbers, today we would be back in one orange zone“Stated a Tomorrow 5. “Let’s say we have arrived on top of the plateau, to this type of mountain, we are now in a phase in which we are walking through the plain and the descent will soon begin ”. Immediately afterwards, the colleague also queues Alberto Cirio: “Since last Friday, Piedmont is potentially in the orange zone, if we have kept this data as of November 30, we can get out of the red zone“They both don’t seem to want to change color ahead of time, but they’re already thinking about Christmas and insist on the effects of the restrictions in their respective territories to ask the government to “review the mechanism of 21 parameters“.
Figures in hand, it seems that yesterday only in Lombardy other 8,448 almost compared to 38,283 tampons, with a positivity rate (in the cases analyzed, thus excluding the control tests) which is still very high (48.6%). The dead also grow, they came to 202 in just one day. Among the provinces, the highest increase in infections is registered in Milan (+2,356), of which 902 only in the city, followed by Varese (+1,830) and Como (+1,024). Patients in intensive care are 894, while hospitalized patients in Covid departments exceeded 8 thousand. Currently there are 156,567 Lombard citizens positive for the coronavirus. There is a weekly slowdown in new cases, but after exceeding 10,000 infections a day in recent days it is likely that hospitals will continue to fill up in the short term.
In PiedmontHowever, 2,606 new cases and 73 deaths were registered yesterday. Here the positivity rate is lower (24.64% in the cases analyzed) and the increase in infections weekly is in Slow down, but hospitalization rate. There are 5,150 hospitalized Covid patients, 384 of which require intensive care. According to data from Agents, the National Agency for Regional Health Services, 61% of beds in intensive care throughout Piedmont are occupied by Covid patients, compared to 42% for the Italian average. In the medical area, however, the percentage rises to 92%, among the highest in Italy. And this is precisely one of the indicators on which the inclusion of each Region in the different risk bands is based.
An issue on which the governors have returned to controversy, asking the government to reduce the parameters from 21 to 5 to make them “more understandable to the public.” From the Rt index, which according to the ISS is maintained “trustworthy“To fight the pandemic.” The RT that put us in the red zone was at 2.16 and today it is 1.37, the daily increase in patients has gone from 215 to 60 and especially the pressure in the emergency room has dropped by a third in the last 15 days. They are objective data “, Cirio thunders. Fontana, on the other hand, points to the tracking positives: “When certain numbers are exceeded, it is practically impossibleTherefore, in his words, ministry technicians should no longer take this into account when the virus becomes uncontrollable.
“The other aspect that we consider fundamental – added Fontana – is that we should not look at the data of 15 days ago but we must make a forecast of those who will come in the future ”. The governor then flaunts optimism, emphasizing that “these improvements are not determined by the state blockade, because the effects of a measure are seen after at least 15 days. We are now experiencing the results derived from the Lombardy Region ordinance of October 22“In any case, he concludes,” it is better to have an initial precaution and try to be safe. Also because we have to do Christmas and we have to do it with one some freedom“. Cirio is more cautious:” The My fear It’s Christmas, ”says a SkyTg24. “We want to have a normal Christmas, but if we imagine doing it as someone has lived the weeks Of summerIn January or February we will return to this situation and we cannot afford it ”.
