If the confinement is not closed: Lombardy asks the government to “stop all activities and trips, with the exception of exceptional cases such as health, work and proven need, throughout the region from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. from Thursday October 22. »And in a few minutes comes the approval of the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, who when accepting it says:” I have heard from President Fontana and Mayor Sala and we will work together to do so in the next few hours. ” it is about a curfew that will reach its maximum severity during the weekends, with “the closing of the retail trade of medium and large scale except food and basic necessities” like pharmacies: no shopping, therefore no nightlife. A proposal that became necessary given the “rapid evolution of the epidemiological curve and the forecast of the” Indicators Commission “launched by the General Directorate of Welfare, according to which, as of October 31, p There would be about 600 hospitalized in intensive care and up to 4,000 in the other departments. ” On the other hand, the data of these days speak of a virus that has certainly not remitted: if in Italy for the first time in a week we remain below 10 thousand infections (9338) but with an incidence of positive respect for the total number of tampons that went from 5.4 to 9.4 percent in just seven days, with 73 deaths, 545 more hospitalized and another 47 hospitalizations in intensive care, in Lombardy only yesterday, compared to a number of tampons dropped to the half compared to the previous day – 14,577 yesterday, exactly half of the 30,981 on Saturday – new infections were 1,687, with three new accesses to resuscitation, 71 hospitalized in other wards and six deaths. The highest figures are registered in the province of Milan with 814 new cases, of which 436 are found only in the city of Madonnina. A situation of concern and to which the Region has tried to respond in recent days with the activation of the 17 Covid hubs that had been installed during the first wave of health emergency, adding one 18, the Humanitas de Rozzano. . And as of Thursday the Hospital of the Fair will also be operational again, with 221 resuscitation places available, which can be activated in modules in the event of a new emergency.
“Obviously”, clarifies Antonio Pesenti, director of the Resuscitation department of the Polyclinic that manages the Fiera hospital and coordinator of intensive care in the crisis unit of the Lombardy Region due to the Coronavirus emergency, “from Thursday we will activate the first 14 beds and we will transfer about 40 nurses and fifteen doctors from the Polyclinic to manage the situation. ”All the other beds available in the Fair pavilion will be activated when necessary and, as President Attilio Fontana recalled a few weeks ago, also they will be made available to patients from outside the region.
But the smooth dpcm presented by the presidentGiuseppe Conte’s advice Sunday night isn’t even convincing other governors, who are trying to run to cover themselves with more restrictive ordinances. Starting with the Piedmontese, Alberto Cirio, who has planned for today a discipline that disciplines activities such as school that, in harmony with Lombardy and Liguria, could adopt integrated distance education with a staggered schedule. And also for Campania, Governor De Luca has signed a new ordinance that extends the restrictions already in force until November 13, while today a table will be held to evaluate the new measures dedicated to the school. Also because the epidemiological curve in Campania is galloping: only yesterday there were 1,593 new cases of 12,700 tampons and 85 new hospitalized in intensive care. The 21 deaths are also the highest figure recorded in the entire peninsula, and not only due to a communication error by local health authorities. Among the dead there is also a general practitioner from Naples who, Mayor Luigi de Magistris explains, “had probably contracted the virus while visiting one of his sick patients.” He also criticizes the situation in Umbria where health unions denounce the lack of health personnel and where President Donatella Tesei has issued an ordinance that until November 14 strengthens the ties of schools, transport and shopping centers..
