Jones’ law says that whoever smiles when things go wrong has already found someone to blame. In Veneto, things are going badly in the coronavirus emergency for some time and President Luca Zaia does not smile but in an interview with him Corriere della Sera he says that if the region is in the yellow zone it is a choice of Rome. A rather curious way of responding while Veneto yesterday exceeded 190,000 infections (190,641), with 4,092 new cases in the last 24 hours, an Italian record. The victims were 32 and the total of deaths reached 4,801. The hospitals register a total of 3,244 hospitalizations and 369 hospitalized in intensive care.
The case of the yellow zone of Veneto between growing infections and overflowing morgues
And that Veneto is a yellow region on red alert explains it today The impression telling what is happening in Treviso, where the streets are filled with shopping while the morgues are filled with deaths from Covid-19. In the province of origin of the governor, the newspaper writes, in recent days “the coffins have also filled the hospital church of the capital and the one in the Montebelluna municipality cemetery, such was the pressure of the wave of deaths registered in the pavilion. nursing homes were no less. “With a thousand more positives over the weekend, the mayor closed the streets. But the Usl denies that the situation is dramatic (see edition at the end of the article).
And if on October 15 the merchants invaded the squares to ask for the freedom to keep the shops open when the infected were just over 18 thousand, today they have exceeded 90 thousand. In Treviso there were 3,861 positives, today there are 15,456. In Veneto there have been 2,341 deaths since February; today there are 4,800. “Veneto is responsible for a quarter of all transmissions in Italy. I think this is a paradoxical effect of the yellow zone,” said Andrea Crisanti yesterday, who before discussing with Zaia was part of the working group to combat the coronavirus in the region. . “One of the parameters that allows the regions to stay in the yellow zone is the response capacity of the health system, which among other things is measured with the places in resuscitation. This creates a perverse effect because the regions that have more places of intensive care and resuscitation allow the virus to spread further because they do not implement the restrictive measures typical of orange or red areas. And this happened in time in Veneto, “added Crisanti.” The yellow zone, combined with the prevention measures that are adopted today in Veneto, it does not work. This is due both to the use of rapid tests -which have low sensitivity- and to a lack of understanding of contagion and how the transmission chains are interrupted in the territory. I think this was handled by level of the sorcerer’s apprentices. “
A new Dpcm for Italy in the red or orange zone from Christmas to New Year?
The governor was cut in half
The region has a Rt contagion index of 1.01, higher than the national average. According to the governor, this happens because there is a tracking system superior to the rest of Italy and therefore positives are discovered earlier. But then he gets angry with his fellow citizens: “It seems clear to me that we are no longer afraid of dying. I am not in favor of a police state, but it must be clear to everyone that certain behaviors have consequences.” But then he slips away when asked if he intends to propose new restrictions: “I think it is a common defeat to keep asking for rules for wrong behavior and far from civic sense. I don’t think we should go so far as to make rules to say no throw away “. Land. However … Think of masks, I compare them to bulletproof vests: they do not resist cannon fire. The mask protects from the drop, not from the aerosol, the water vapor produced by many people gathered ”.
And again: “It seems really strange to me to have to make an ordinance for something that is already provided by law: art. 1, paragraph 8, of the legislative decree of May 16, 2020, n. 33, prohibits meetings. So should you make an ordinance to say respect the law? Even there: do we want the Manzonian screams? Anyway, I never backed down and if something needs to be done, it will be done again. “Then the half opening:” Today I will meet with the mayors of all the provincial capitals to assess the situation. “Meanwhile, the epidemic continues.
EDIT mineral 12.01: “The occupation of space in the morgues of Treviso and Montebelluna reflects” a typical situation of the season “and there are no” disasters that someone is describing. “Today to clarify the contours of the general situation, after a royal adviser of the Democratic Party raised the alarm about a situation comparable to that of Bergamo in the first wave. Until now, it has been underlined, the deaths from causes related to Covid Castelfranco Veneto and Montebelluna hospitals were, respectively, 18 and 17, so that dimensions considered “completely manageable”. In the Treviso morgue “there are no saturations”, it has been added, and if some bodies have been placed in a Church, “in a more than dignified situation, it is to try to respond to the relatives who , due to the distance or because they are in quarantine, they have asked us “- inform those responsible i – to delay the date of the funeral”. In the structure, which has a capacity of 32 seats, there are also three organs at the disposal of the judicial authority. Compared to Montebelluna, health managers recall that the morgue also houses corpses from the Castelfranco area, where there have been particularly constant outbreaks. The deaths registered by all causes in November were 40 and some corpses were housed in the mortuary cells of the Montebelluna cemetery according to the City Council, with an average stay of 3/4 days.
