“Ho 68 years, I have already operated twice for breast cancer. All my semester checks were already posted for November fortnight and I wanted to be vaccinated before going to the hospital. It seemed fair to me to try to protect myself a bit, but I am puzzled that I have not yet received theflu shot“. Bewilderment, frustration, anger. IT IS fear of not being able to get vaccinated in a reasonable time, before the flu arrives and adds its effects to those of the pandemic of COVID-19. Are the feelings that arise from more than 60 emails received from Pd Milano Metropolitana in the last three days. Before the same Ats came the admission that “all Production line distributive of the vaccine presents very low availabilityAnd it is not known “when there will be more supplies”.
the testimonials of ordinary citizens about the situation out of control in Lombardy are added to that of Silvio Garattini collected two days ago from Corriere della Sera“I am one of the many older people waiting for the flu vaccine, but the family doctor tells me that not available yet, however I have 92 years, I should get vaccinated like every year “, says the founder ofMario Negri Institute from Milan. Thanks to his knowledge, Garattini was able to find one shortcut: “I don’t want to do it: the administrations should have already been available for the risk categories, sick, elderly and in general over 60, as well as people with other pathologies, for several weeks. And as a citizen I want to wait, like everyone, my turn in coda”.
And waiting for a free vaccine there thousands of Lombard citizens of the categories at risk, victims of messes of the Lombardy Region, which after a sequence of errors in the calls for tenders, up to ten, it has not been able to obtain a series of doses enough and in useful times at the beginning of the vaccination campaign, which should have started this year on the recommendation of the ministry early october. “Ho 76 years and some pathologies, my husband has 71 years and a reduced lung due to surgery, ”AA says in another email compiled by the Milan Democratic Party to people on the mailing list for having participated in the center-left primaries in the past. “We have already called our primary care physician twice to reserve the vaccine. Twice he ‘postponed’ us to the following week, saying that still have no vaccinations available. “MV was no better:” I’ve been suffering for 10 years regularly the flu shot, my GP had made an appointment for me toNovember 11th. I showed up at the appointed time but the vaccinations they had not arrivedwe’ll have to call 18 to find out as long as vaccination can be done. I think it’s unheard of ”.
For many, finding a date is a waste of time: “Later contact compartments from the vaccination centers in Milan – says FO – they direct me to green number for health reserves in the Region. On the first day of service execution, the number was unreachable until 7:45 p.m. in response, the employee reported without knowing how to give me answers, referring to the vaccination centers in Milan. “A situation that does not forgive even the experts:” I am one physiotherapist from Asst Nord Milano, engaged in the front line in the Covid emergency. In addition to working and putting my health and that of my family at risk every day, for a ridiculous salary, I find myself, together with my colleagues, without listening to me protected not even from the point of view of flu vaccines. In mid-November we still don’t know nothing: the company’s internal reservation system is gone crazy after a day”.
For many it is difficult to find doses in vaccination centers and general practitioners, who have received them at that time. only one hundred each. Impossible to find them by paying them, from 9 to 16 euros, in the pharmacy that – as the president of Federfarma Lombardia recalled on Tuesday Anna Rosa Racca – They still do not know how many doses they will have from the Region to be able to sell them to citizens. PD Milan has decided to publish in his Facebook page some of the testimonials collected, one every half hour, with hashtags #OdysseyDeiVaccines. “In the region that has a quarter of Covid infections and a third of deaths nationwide – accuses Secretary Subway Silvia Roggiani – Vaccines is the latest saga of a organizational and management failure of public health by the president Attilio fontana and his councilor for welfare Giulio Gallera”.
In the end, someone manages to make an appointment. Maybe away from home or in a few weeks: “I am 71 years old and at risk of myasthenia tomb. For the vaccination they booked me as a fragile person in December 31, 2020 at Villa Marelli“. Someone else decides to go to private, which these days are doing good business thanks to the inefficiency of the Region: “I booked privately at the center that installed Multimedia in the Museum of Science and Technology. I will have to pay 60 euros. We thank all those for bringing public health to this condition when once here with us it was excellence“Others do not just have to console themselves by the lucky acquaintances who live elsewhere:” I am glad to know that my friends in my home region, the Puglia, have had access to the service for some time”.
To those who objected that the emails collected by the Democratic Party came from sympathizers of the Democratic Party who have an interest in highlighting the inefficiencies of the Fontana board, just remember the message sent two weeks ago by Viviana Beccalossi in a wrong chat and revealed by ilfattoquotidiano.it: “My mother-in-law (89 years old) is one moth that he would like to be vaccinated against the flu without success – wrote the councilor who supports the center-right majority in Pirellone -. I’m thinking of giving her Gallera’s cell phone and knowing her well she would call him every day until he pleased her. Maybe the time is right who resigns!”.
