He is the first on the list of reserves and excluded summoned at 1:00 p.m., on the 5th, at the Cotugno hospital: the surgeon Luigi Ricciardelli, 51 years, in service 13 in the same company, sent home without having an anti-vaccination-COVID-19.
Should the dose given to Governor Vincenzo De Luca have been his?
“Mine or another colleague in line or a nurse who works the front line, I don’t make it personal.”
But do you also treat Covid patients?
“I was the first to operate on a patient affected by Coronavirus in the CTO, during the first wave of the pandemic, and I also provided medical advice to the Cotugno emergency room and to the CTO itself. But not because it’s better, just out of obligation: other professionals do the same. I am one of many, not a hero.
Vaccino De Luca, Salvini: “Don’t cross the line, my mom taught me”
Was he also in quarantine?
“Not fortunately”.
Have your colleagues on the ward been infected?
“One of them, 4 nurses and 5 patients in the same corridor, where I work. This was during the first wave of the pandemic, but the risk is on the agenda.
Do you think De Luca should have given priority to health workers in vaccination, adopting the line of the head of state Sergio Mattarella?
“De Luca has a strong personality, any decision he made would have triggered reactions: pros and cons, as the controversial result of the Mattino.it poll also shows.”
Many attacked him, from Mayor Luigi de Magistris to Vice President of the Regional Council Valeria Ciarambino. What is your opinion?
«I don’t have such a clear opinion, although I also do politics with Italia Viva. As head of health in Campania, your immediate adherence to the campaign may be a signal: but who did you set the example for, in this case? Doctors and nurses? ».
So, would it have been better to prioritize professionals like you who operate on the front line?
“But the governor is more important than me … And, in case of Covid illness, it is still easier to replace me, despite the shortage of health personnel, than the president of the regional council. But I would like to emphasize that it was not the only one inserted with a criterion different from that of the “first line” ».
That is to say?
“According to the recommendations of the Ministry of Health, published on the institutional website, the vaccine should have been administered exclusively to doctors and nurses and guests of the nursing homes and, I believe, in particular to the operators on duty at the Covid Centers, in resuscitation, surgery, pulmonology, first aid and infectious diseases, and not to employees or administrative managers ”.
Have you seen several in the boxes placed in the tent in front of the ER?
“I arrived at 11 and stayed until 13: I counted 4 or 5. Let me be clear: they also have the right to the bottle, in the second round in my opinion, since they do not have direct contact with the sick.”
Hence the protests.
“I was not the only one who raised the case. And, as company secretary of Fesmed, the federation of executive doctors, I intend to write a note to the top management of Colli hospital. But without arguing. In fact, I would also like to underline something else.
You’re welcome.
“The day was organized in an extraordinary way, as the entire company proved to be a model in the management of the different phases of the pandemic.”
But …
«I think they should have indicated the first hundred vaccinated in the vDay according to the risk class, preferring who is more exposed. But I am grateful that, after the findings, the same leaders have worked to recover, on December 30 and 31 and on January 1, to be able to remember those who did not have the opportunity to get vaccinated last Sunday.
There are at least twenty percent of health workers in Campania who, however, say no to prevention.
“What a mistake: the vaccine is the only way to attack and defeat the virus.”
What do you suggest?
It is essential to vaccinate all personnel at risk as soon as possible, but the operation still takes time ”.
While you wait for herd immunity to be achieved, what do you think of the strengthened restrictions adopted in Campania?
“In this I agree with the governor’s elections, because we saw how it ended as soon as the prescriptions were loosened a bit: everything became a party, it was exaggerated. It is better to control and contain, thus reducing the danger of a third wave.
