Vincenzo de Luca, that the governor is treated in Milan is a disgrace – Libero Quotidiano

Bad ugly the Cancer Institute of Milan that robs the sick from Neapolitan hospitals. The president of the Campania region, Vincenzo De Luca, denounced him the other day in one of his usual curtains. An advertisement for the well-known Milanese hospital happened to appear on some buses in Naples, promoting the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. And it would be, according to De Luca, a “speculation” against the sick of Campania, all the more detestable since it prompts them to undertake such dangerous voyages of hope in times of epidemic.

In Naples, De Luca explains, there is the best health in Italy, in Europe and even in the world (he said it, it is not a joke), and therefore it is not clear under what title the voracious commercialism of the north intends to sneak in. your predatory ads. The idea, in the assumption of a regionalism formulated in the anticancer autarky, is that the patient constitutes an asset acquired in an exclusive monopoly, an asset to be subtracted from Lombard greed and to which the use of vernacular assistance.

Nobody, much less, doubts the excellence of the Neapolitan health center, but De Luca’s complaint resembles the warning of the sorcerer who diagnoses with chicken bones and tells the sick not to go to the white doctors who they steal the soul, even speculators like the Cancer Institute who want to bring patients to Made in Naples medical care. An exodus in the opposite direction, with Lombards flocking to Naples to be treated, let’s just say it’s hard to imagine. And it is to be believed that a similar initiative undertaken up here would have little response, because if a Milanese person sees on the tram the poster of a Naples hospital inviting him to be treated there, he goes directly to the first police station and files a complaint for misleading advertising.

But let’s make it happen: would it be “speculation”? No, it would be the case of a health facility that offers its services and that must be judged and chosen for its ability to insure them. And if some Lombards followed the suggestion, the rest of us would have a reason. Looking into their eyes, we would ask them if they are completely mad, after which their will is done: rather than recommending them to San Gennaro we would not know what to invent.
