Covid-19 has spread like wildfire to Villa dei jasmomini, a structure of the La Quercia Elpidiense company, which is located on the outskirts of the town of Bivio Cascinare, a village of Sant’Elpidio a Mare. The carpet check allowed the determination of 12 other infected seniors, along with 5 employees of the protected residence. The structure was closed and all patients, including the 6 negatives, were transferred to the RSA Anni azzurri along the Valdaso, in the Campofilone territory, clearly separating those infected by Covid, for which the Region has granted accreditation to RSA, of the uninfected. As for the operators, the Asur Prevention Department is carrying out the management of positive cases and close contacts of a case. Inform the family doctors and relatives of all guests about the measures taken. Among the employees there are 5 of the 8 positive cases, but it is being verified whether other collaborators have also recently visited the protected residence. Meanwhile, attempts are being made to clarify the origin of the outbreak. The most likely hypothesis is that it all started with one person among the owners, who recently returned from Sardinia.
The origin
It is likely that the disease was contracted precisely in that region, where fairly widespread infections have developed since August, and which could later have been transmitted to patients when he returned to work. The mayor of Sant’Elpidio a Mare Alessio Terrenzi promises maximum attention: “Epidemiological investigations have begun to verify the contacts that had the positives, based on who has entered the structure in recent days, we are in close contact with Dr. Giuseppe Ciarrocchi from the Asur Prevention Department, who is monitoring the situation. The question obviously becomes a priority. In addition to dealing with the positives, we must stop any contagion, against which we are and have always been vigilant. The mayor closes with a reassuring message to the families of the people who stayed in the retirement home. “Family members of the guests can rest assured: everything possible is being done to keep the situation under control.” However, it is clear that apprehension is high, because if it is true that the lethality of the virus in recent weeks is not comparable with that of the beginning of the pandemic, certainly such a large contagion among the most fragile groups does not make you sleep soundly .
The investigations
The municipal social services are controlling the regularity of the number of guests. In fact, the nursing home is accredited by fewer than the 19 people who were staying there. Therefore, it is very likely that in the next few hours a suspension measure by the agency will arrive and the Labor Inspectorate will order the investigations.
