The analysis of the president of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità Silvio Brusaferro and the General Director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Gianni rezza on the trend of infections in Italy.
The increase in cases has been on the rise in the last two to three weeks, although intensive care is still below the warning level.. This was stated by the general director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Gianni rezza, at the press conference organized by the same ministry.
Although the average age of Covid-19 cases has decreased since last spring, cases in the elderly are increasing. Therefore, young people must take special care to protect them. This was stated by the president of the National Institute of Health (Iss), Silvio Ironbrush. The incidence of Covid is growing and the country is involved in all its regions, in some of which the incidence of Covid has increased more than in other parts – added Brusaferro referring to the monitoring data presented last Friday. In addition, according to the president of the ISS “asymptomatic and paucisymptomatic patients are increasing and this is an element to take into account “.
The data shows a continuous progression in hospitalizations and the challenge is to be able to manage the epidemic by guaranteeing assistance to other health needs, which continue to exist, stressed Brusaferro. The president of the ISS pointed out that there is a threshold, which must not be exceeded, beyond which patients suffering from other diseases could no longer find an answer in our hospitals.
For Brusaferro, In all regions, the Rt contagion index is greater than 1, the number of cases is increasing, and resources are struggling to meet the trace: “these are important numbers and difficult to sustain”Therefore, it is necessary to resort to mitigation in order to contain the epidemic curve. The sense of responsibility, he added, is another crucial tool to be able to control the spread.
