There are those (Crisanti) who first called for a national closure for Christmas and then, urbi et orbi, said frankly that they did not think about getting vaccinated in January. And who (Zangrillo) in May played the depth of the virus and shortly after, between a round of visits and another at the bedside of his illustrious patients affected by Covid, triggered the setback, speaking of “out of tune tone” in relation to the first statements. Bulimic scientists when making statements to the media about the progress of the pandemic, contradicting each other and often even themselves, all with an information overload and confusion that weighs on the mental stability of citizens. The report cards of the twelve big names in the fight against Coronavirus (virologists, infectious diseases and anesthetists), prepared by Reputation Science, a leading company in Italy in the analysis and management of reputation, which are screened through a sample of more than 120 significant statements are not too flattering from the so-called experts, delivered …
Some people (Chrysanthemums) first called for a national closure for Christmas and then, urbi et orbi, said frankly that he was not thinking of getting vaccinated in January. And who (Zangrillo) in May, the deeps of the virus sounded and shortly after, between one round of visits and another at the bedside of his illustrious patients affected by Covid, he triggered the reverse, speaking of a “out of tune tone” in relation to the first statements. Scientists bulimic when making statements to the media about the progress of pandemic, contradicting each other and often also with themselves, all with an overload of information and confusion that weighs on the mental health of citizens.
They are not too flattering report cards of the twelve great names of the lotta to Coronavirus (virologists, infectious agents and anesthetists), prepared by Reputation Science, Italy’s leading company in reputation analysis and management, which examined a sample of more than 120 significant statements from so-called experts, delivered over the last ten months via the Internet. Among them too Ilaria Capua, among the minds most disputed by journalists in the first phase of the pandemic, the scientist, former deputy of which just a few days ago, through a ‘tip’ on live television of the infectious disease specialist Matteo bassettiIt turned out that he is a doctor, but a veterinarian.

The survey focused attention on three criteria to evaluate the statements (sharing, infection danger alert, consistency), obtaining the highest number of rankings. From the point of view of the communicative flow, some virologists dominated the scene in the period in which the trend of infections was on the rise, such as the web star Roberto Burioni, Scientific Director of the online journal Medical Facts. Others, on the other hand, concentrated their interventions in the phase in which the numbers of infections were minimal, such as Alberto Zangrillo who in May slipped into the well-known outsourcing “the virus is clinically dead”, partially corrected by the same head of the operational unit . of anesthesia and resuscitation of San Raffaele, but only in the middle of the personal battle against Sars-Cov2 of his client Silvio Berlusconi. Certainly a bad blow to the consistency of the fixture.
Regarding the homogeneity of judgment to guide the ranking of Reputation Science, expressed on a scale of 1 to 10, the name of the virologist stands out Fabrizio Pregliasco (9.67). Above all, the specialist warned the population about the danger of the virus, constantly reminding institutions about the need to impose restrictive measures. An attitude of maximum prudence that, in an alert index, which goes from -5 to +5, crowns him the leader of the penalty shooters (+4.45), exposing him against his will to insults and social threats. The three lowest rungs in the coherence ranking are occupied by scientists instead Giorgio Palù (3.09), Andrea Crisanti (3.05) and Maria Rita Gismondo (0.75).
On the Sacco microbiologist, whose alert index is negative (-1.44), having defined the Coronavirus (it was the dawn of the pandemic) a “problem just above the flu” weighs like a stone. He later tried to reposition himself, falling, however, in various contradictions both about the virulence of Covid-19 and about the use of the mask. Starting from a rigorous orientation, Palù, first specialization in Oncology and General Pathology, recently stood out for having stated that the disease is in a waning phase (August), having relaunched the idea that it was created in the laboratory (September) and minimized its lethality (“It can kill, but it is not the plague”). Even the virologist Crisanti, a Venetian hero in the management (without buts) of the first wave, despite having a full participation, thus beating the competition (14.9% ahead of Ricciardi and Burioni), has recently seen his credibility. Fatal is the feat of undergoing or not undergoing the long-awaited vaccination in January.
Repeatedly accused of denial, his historical opponent Bassetti is the leader of the scientists who advocate a less alarmist approach to the pandemic (-3.42). In February, the director of Infectious Diseases of San Martino di Genova declared that Covid-19 “is not a devastating infection”, two months later he estimated that the virus was losing strength. A narrative often at odds with government directives, in turn questionable, but certainly consistent (8.02). At least in his case.
“From the analysis – is the general comment on the survey by Auro Palomba, president of Reputation science – emerges very clearly as the flow of communication triggered by the experts has been excessive and inconsistent. We are living in a time of great uncertainty and, unfortunately, we are witnessing many individual professionals who are using the media focus for personal promotion. “More than one Italian had noticed the trend. Now there are also the report cards to refute last unstable doubts.
