Contagions are still high in Campania. After yesterday’s record (4,181), in bulletin on Thursday, November 5, the new cases are 3,888 (of which 210 symptomatic) and the processed swabs 19,568. Confirmed deaths in the last 24 hours are 17 (two more than the previous day) for a total of 756. There are 311 healed people (total 14,697).

In regional hospitals the situation is as follows: in intensive care they are hospitalized 174 patients (-1) in 243 beds that can be activated; in ordinary hospitalization there are 1,608 patients (+39) of the 1940 beds that can be activated.

The decision, not without controversy, intervened to include Campania in the yellow zone, the one considered less serious by the Ministry of Health Gianni rezza, General Director of Prevention of the department headed by Roberto Speranza.

Rezza explained that Campania has “many cases but it has a much lower Rt than, for example, Lombardy or Calabria. Because obviously the transmission has increased a lot in the last few weeks but now it has stabilized a bit, so there is a not particularly high Rt. Obviously the regional ordinances may have had a certain effect on transmission ”.

DE LUCA’S REACTION – An invitation to all mayors Campania “to prepare from today the closing of Oceanfront and part of historic centres in Weekend. We cannot tolerate that there are, in this situation, thousands of people who go out for a walk as if nothing had happened ”. The governor addresses him Vincenzo De Luca that, a few hours after the Government’s decision to include Campania in yellow zone (the one considered less serious by the Ministry of Health), has already announced a new ordinance to confirm the closure of primary and secondary schools despite the fact that the area in question foresees face-to-face teaching except for high school.

REGISTRATION 7 DAYS – In a week, the Crisis Unit of the Campania Region will evaluate with the “control room” directed by the Ministry of Health the data of the infections and the relative effects produced by the restrictive measures. “This period is needed to understand whether a measure is working or not,” he explains. Roberta Santaniello, a member of the Unit, to the radio station Crc Targato Italia. For the classification of Campania as a yellow region, “intensive care beds have been affected. We have 150 beds, with an occupancy of less than 30%. On the one hand, the regional health system has produced a strengthening of available beds, on the other hand a softer limitation imposed at the national level. De Luca at the table of the State-Regions Conference was very clear about the homogeneity of the dpcm which, let’s face it, is a shelter and we hope that it will warm us from the cold of the advance of the virus. In Campania we exceeded 69 thousand infections “.

GIVES 5MILA TO 21MILA TAMPONI – “We left a police station – recalls Santaniello – thanks to the work we have done, we do not experience a scenario like Calabria. We have made progress in strengthening the hospital and emergency facilities, 3,000 doctors have been hired and we have more beds. We can guarantee assistance to citizens and we are doing a job for general practitioners with the new homemade tampons. It is very difficult to monitor the situation with the virus in the neck, but the Region is working 24 hours a day ”. “We started with 5,000 tampons and today we are at 21,000 a day. This is thanks to the strengthening of the public structure and with the help of private laboratories. We hope to achieve 100% coverage on the platform for all the laboratories in Campania ”, he says.
