The growth of covid infections does not stop: in the last 24 hours there have been 24 thousand new cases and the scenario of variants, which are also affecting the youngest segment of the population.
“The variants are worrying. English now dominates to a large extent on the Italian scene, but the other variants, with which we will have to live, are also worrying. It is very important to intervene in a timely and radical way to contain them, especially where there are variants that we still need to know in depth, for example in terms of response to the vaccine ”.actually said Silvio Brusaferro, president of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità, during the press conference at the Ministry of Health on weekly monitoring. In school, in fact, it stands out how “in the age group between 0-19 years there is a re-outbreak of “Covid-19 cases” that must be confirmed, but in any case there is a re-outbreak of cases in all age groups. “

That is why the next week between the previous regional ordinances and the new directions there will be a small number of students in the school, presumably less than 2 million out of a total of 8.3, informs the Ansa. There are 5 regions with a weekly incidence level higher than 250 cases per one hundred thousand inhabitantsIt is precisely the threshold that for the new Dpcm in force since Saturday would set off the alarm with the Presidents of the Regions willing to close schools at all levels. These are Emilia Romagna (342.08 cases per one hundred thousand), Lombardy (254.44), Marche (265.16), the autonomous province of Bolzano (376.99) and Trento (385.02).
But the worsening seems to be a trend that will soon also manifest itself in the rest of the territories. Especially if we continue to give lessons in the presence that, according to several experts who now do not hide their concern, represents a clear risk of contagion.
Second Fabrizio Pregliasco, a virologist at the University of Milan, the school is now a touchy subject: “The figure has been growing for 3 weeks, between 20% and 30% more cases – stressed the expert – It leads us to see the situation a bit like the ramp of the second wave of October. We must absolutely prevent this from happening, in the hope that these restrictive interventions, which certainly annoy families and all of us, will continue to be necessary to continue the vaccination campaign that from April I believe will be able to give that possible high protection to expect . “.
Clearer opinion of Massimo galli, virologist at the Sacco Hospital in Milan: “In schools – has explained – there are children and young people concentrated for several hours a day in a situation of necessary closeness that ends up causing the spread of the infection, which in commercial establishments can be handled in another way, I think“Therefore, the closure of schools is a”necessary choice for the new connotations of the virus and the pandemic and the presence of outbreaks in the institutes”.

The key to safely returning to face-to-face lessons is a clear system of tracing and swabs in schools and an acceleration of the vaccination campaign of school personnel: as for the first point, the same Minister Bianchi He indicated it among the priorities: “Tracking and intermediate storage activities are needed, mobile units are needed at the territorial level that can monitor the situation in the best possible way“. Also on the second point, that of vaccination, the Minister of Education tries to pressure:”Immediately after my inauguration, I asked that all school personnel be protected and vaccinated. The vaccine is essential and my request is that it be accelerated as much as possible“.
Bianchi: “We will be present again. We will treasure DaD to build a new school “
At the moment the The vaccine administered to school personnel is around 287,000 doses. However, there are many problems, but in all regional differences: as underlined by the Governor of Campania Vincenzo De Luca, the vaccination campaign for school personnel will be completed on March 10. Otherwise, Lombardy has not yet started: it will start on Monday the 8th. This denotes a clear regional difference that could jeopardize the evolution of decisions regarding face-to-face and distance learning.
