3 ‘reading

Silvio Berlusconi’s second night at the San Raffaele hospital in Milan passed “quietly”, where he is hospitalized positive for coronavirus with the beginning of bilateral pneumonia. «Professor Alberto Zangrillo, head of the General and Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit of the Irccs San Raffaele Hospital in Milan, announces that the clinical conditions of the patient Silvio Berlusconi remain stable. The respiratory and clinical symptoms confirm a regular and expected course, which leads to a cautious but reasonable optimism ”: so we read in the bulletin issued by San Raffaele on Silvio Berlusconi’s conditions.

Verónica Lario, Berlusconi’s ex-wife, meanwhile breaks the silence and says she is “saddened and even a little worried.” As soon as she learned that Berlusconi had been affected by the virus and even before her hospitalization in San Raffaele – reports Repubblica – through the secretariat of the leader of Forza Italia, she sent her a message of closeness and encouragement. However, the clinical scenario seems quite comforting, he adds, “and my children have reassured me, they tell me to stay calm.” Professor Zangrillo speaks of “mild pulmonary involvement” and “necessary hospitalization” due to the risks associated with “age and previous pathologies”, but “the clinical situation is calm and comforting”

Contagion and the hunt for the “infector”

As for the circumstances of the contagion, he does not accept the attribution of guilt, the identification of a “greaser”, clarifying, the Roman newspaper always writes, that his is a general thought that applies to everyone, not the defense of a branch. of the family: “I do not like hunting the culprit, it runs the risk of overshadowing the good we have done,” says Verónica Lario, who focuses especially on the “extraordinary commitment of doctors and nurses.” And then she also remembers “the therapies that are being tried and the problems of these days: the resumption of school in safety conditions, the return to normal life of our children who cannot be retained.”

The tensions between the children of the two branches

The tensions between the children belonging to the two family branches and the hypotheses about contagion, however, led Verónica Lario’s third daughter, Barbara, to publicly communicate her irritation: “It is completely unlikely that I infect my father, no I led no life. ” not regulated in Sardinia. Apart from the nightlife … more like diapers! ». Even in the former prime minister’s first family there is worry and tension. The eldest daughter, Marina, who received her father in Provence during the confinement, ensuring that he had as little contact as possible, had a harsh exchange with Carlo De Benedetti on Friday, after the latter confirmed an unflattering judgment about the former first Minister.

Marina: I never made accusations about contagion from my father

Also from Marina Berlusconi a note was released about the father’s illness and the alleged “hunt for the greaser.” “I believe that my father’s illness, like that of any other human being, deserves a lot more respect, discretion and attention to the truth than he reads and doesn’t hear these days. Days marked by the obsessive search for conflicts that do not exist and by the hunt for the “culprit” that really leaves us confused. As for myself, I find myself attributed not only to thoughts that I never had and accusations that I never dreamed of making, but also to words and judgments that I would never have had reason to pronounce. This is what we read in the note from President Fininvest and Mondadori, in response to press rumors that she is very irritated by the alleged methods of contagion of the coronavirus that hit her father and former prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi. «I will be naive – she concludes – but I am not resigned to seeing the feelings of family members, true friends, faithful collaborators so trampled on. In addition, of course, to the commitment of the doctors who follow my father as always with great professionalism and humanity and whom I want to thank once again.
