The Turin medical order requests the immediate red zone for Piedmont. “We have some estimates according to which the incidence of positive people in Piedmont, which as of March 7 was 277 per 100,000 inhabitants, could double in the next two weeks all things being equal – underlines the president of the Order of Doctors Guido Giustetto that criticizes the data analysis mechanism that really examines them when they are now almost two weeks old.

“IS It is insane for the government to make decisions based on surveys dating back 10 days, using a cumbersome system It does not take into account all the data already available and the possible projections. Intervening when the situation is now out of control is useless “says the doctor according to whom” lhe current epidemiological situation in Piedmont sees a constant increase, day after day, of infections and hospitalizations due to Covid-19, with the real risk of saturation of hospital wards ”.

“At this time, at the national and local level, the convenience of establishing a” is being discussed. “Red zone“In our region from next week. Like the Order of Doctors of Turin – continues Giustetto – we believe instead that the red zone should start immediately: wait a few more days before proceeding with new measures, than in any case they will have to be adopted, it does not have any logic neither from the health point of view nor from the economic and social point of view “.

The danger, according to the Order, is in fact that “the situation here next week can get even worse consequently causing a more marked increase in infections, hospitalized patients and, unfortunately, deaths. But not only: a late closing, in addition to being less effective, also runs the risk of being longer and, therefore, less bearable for economic activities and the repercussions from the social and psychological point of view ”.

The appeal of the College of Physicians joins that of theAnaao, the union of hospitals. “If it must be the red zone, as the numbers say, it must be immediately. Postponing the restrictions allows the contagion to spread to such a degree that the resumption, be it economic, of schools, of ordinary hospital structures, of the social life”. It will be more complex and late – the union writes in a note – The trend of infection and the pressure on hospitals, classify us as a red zone. Postponing it will cause, in addition to greater damage to the economy and an exponential spread of the infection, especially a higher number of deaths. “Ultimately, the health world asks the Region to make” courageous and painful decisions to protect its citizens, and take them as soon as possible. Without waiting for the central decisions, because the lost time corresponds to the loss of life and productive activities in greater anguish “.”.
