“Campania red zone” between the unbraked variants and the exhausted sub-intensive



[ad_1]

So far, the orange zone has had no effect on coronavirus fever, which is always high in Campania. The varying effect, especially English, is felt and also affects the age stratification: more daily infections, incidence per 100,000 growing inhabitants, Rt infectivity index with exponential profile, hospitals almost on the brink and sub-intensive care units almost exhausted . These are the premises of a climate that is increasingly fraught with concerns that prevails in the regional crisis units.

In the control room that met yesterday, difficulties arose regarding the availability of beds in all health companies. The variant has taken care settings one step further and it is now difficult to find a patient who does not need intensive oxygen support. The president of the Region Vincenzo De Luca has been asking for days to reactivate all the departments put on stand-by after the autumn wave: there are no sub-intensive places. In Boscotrecase and Nola there are still a couple of departments to start up and also in the Covid modular center in eastern Naples, but the great limitation remains that of specialized staff who is almost impossible to find without closing ordinary activities. An uphill road that has a strong impact on attendance levels. Even the hypothesis of reactivating the proportion of beds in accredited nursing homes has its limit in the availability, above all, of low-intensity care beds.

A precarious balance that could almost certainly lead Campania to the red zone starting next Monday with the price to pay to the new regulations that, postponing the repression of restrictions at the beginning of the week, would lend its side to the contagions of nightlife. It is no coincidence that in the last week of February the incidence of new cases, compared to the previous week, in Naples and its province increased by approximately 50 percent with always a prevalence of infections registered among young and very young, true protagonists of the ‘trigger of this third wave that is looming in Campania with the aggravation of now having to face a mutated and more aggressive virus capable of overloading health facilities and also hindering ongoing vaccination procedures. “The news that I receive from all my colleagues is worrying, I fear that the variants are spreading rapidly, especially the English one and I hope it does not end up in the red zone again,” warns Bruno Zuccarelli, Monaldi’s primary and candidate for the presidency of the Order of Doctors of Naples for the “Ethics” list, in the consultations that are coming up now for the renewal of the elected positions. Zuccarelli calls for greater attention to respect for regulations, because “the English variant runs the risk of overwhelming us with an unexpected force as happened in the United Kingdom and analyzing data from the territory.”

It will be difficult to get rid of such a complex situation: it all depends on the progress of infections. Campania has exceeded a currently positive 75 thousand quota. If the health care network still manages to stay afloat, it is only thanks to the low hospitalization rate that has accompanied it since the start of the pandemic. Lombardy, just to give an example, with just over 60,000 positives has 476 people in intensive care and Campania 133. Similar proportions compared to Veneto, Emilia and Piedmont. Spies are now also registered in emergency rooms. In Cardarelli, the inter-union of the medical direction declared a state of agitation and asked the prefect to meet. Also on its knees the first line of the hospital del mar. Campania, meanwhile, with the transition to distance education in schools has anticipated the provisions of the new Dpcm signed yesterday by Prime Minister Mario Dragni: in fact, the stop at the school in presence is planned not only in the red areas, but also in orange and yellow areas where Sars-Cov-2 variants abound and in areas where there are more than 250 infections per 100,000 inhabitants in a 7-day period. Indicator that in Campania has risen from 157 to 254. Yesterday’s bulletin also marks a storm with another 2,046 cases against 1,896 on Monday and a percentage of positive swabs that marks a new record, 13.41 percent after 12.97 percent. cent of the day before. The increase in deaths (from 20 to 36) and 1,332 more currently positive with intensive therapies has also been decided that empty 7 patients before 16 new entries to mark the lethality of the most critical cases and finally an Rt that exceeds the threshold of 1 ,4. Finally the vaccines: “The novelty – warns Pina Tommasielli of the crisis unit – is the green light for the regional agreement for the administrations of family doctors who will be able to reach the disabled and also welcome the most fragile to study, using especially the Moderna vaccine. . easy to store “.
