New infections (many), upward trends, Rt above 1, other outbreaks also in RSA, nursing homes and hospitals. ICU overload greater than 30% and medical areas greater than 40%: here are the reasons why the Campania region was today reclassified Covid red zone, performing a double jump and bypassing the orange intermediate.

The 26 pages of the Covid impact assessment prepared by the Higher Institute of Health with the technicians of the Ministry of Health this week benefit from the updated data and ministerial reports from the inspectors who came to Naples to visit hospitals and ASL. Are the overloads of intensive care and medical areas this time to make a difference. “At week 26, 3 active outbreaks were reported in ‘RSA or other long-term inpatient facility’ (vs 0 the week before). This week outbreaks have also been detected in RSA and hospitals through Epidemic Intelligence », reads the note that accompanies one of the information sheets on the situation in Campania.

This is how the lights of the last few days, much desired by the minister, have been fulfilled. Roberto Speranza and by the minister Francesco Boccia by unpleasant, sweep the field of any doubt about the real situation in Campania. After all, the situation is no better in the rest of the country: “During the follow-up week, all Regions are classified as high risk of an uncontrolled and unmanageable epidemic in the territory or at moderate risk with a high probability of progressing to high risk in the next few weeks.

Red zone means, very briefly, no travel, closed bars, restaurants and shops in general, except supermarkets, pharmacies, tobacconists, hairdressers, school that attends only up to sixth grade (but in Campania the schools are all closed and won’t reopen), as well as closures valid for the entire country, those of cinemas, theaters, gyms. The objective is to drastically stop those infected and with them the average percentage that access hospitals for medium-severe symptoms.
