Black day in Veneto in front of Deaths from COVID-19. In the last 24 hours are 191 people died, a figure that probably also includes deaths that occurred a few days before, but still constitutes the negative record in pandemic accounting. The situation is serious, but at the top of the Region it continues to be minimized. One day alone is not enough, but the data would be enough from December 1 to 28 in Italy to induce players in the Veneto league to be more cautious. Instead, they insist on denying the evidence, that is, the existence of a “Veneto case.” And they defend to the bitter end the excellence of a health system that performs 40,000 quick swabs and 20,000 molecular swabs in one day, to affirm that the percentages provided by the Ministry of Health are misleading and penalize Veneto, which, precisely because it continues to rub more than the other regions, has an exaggeratedly higher number of infected.
The most up-to-date data (referring to December 28) indicate a daily increase of positive in Veneto equal to 2,782 units, while the second region is the Lazio (which is based like Veneto in many rapid tests) with an increase of 966 units. Only a third. Follow theEmilia romagna with 750 new cases. If we look at the deaths, they were the same day 69 in Veneto, equal to 15.5% of the 445 deaths in Italy. An average much higher than the regional population (4 million 900 thousand inhabitants, equivalent to 8.24 percent of the national population). So he mortality is almost double. But if we take the Lazio (5.8 million inhabitants, almost a million more than Veneto) and Puglia (4 million, one less than Veneto), the respective 47 deaths are equivalent to 10.6%. The other regions in this tragic ranking are far apart: Lombardy is at 9.43% (but the population is double that of Veneto), Emilia-Romagna at 7% of deaths, despite having a population of only 400 thousand. units less than in Veneto, the Campania (which has a million more) is 7.4 percent. There Sicily is 6.3%, the Tuscany at 6.5 percent.
Obviously one day’s data are only indicative of a trend. But that the Venetian health center is travolta The second wave of the great pandemic is demonstrated by the sequence of deaths referred to the entire month (until December 28), extrapolated from the data provided daily by the Ministry of Health. President Luca zaia He keeps saying that his region is like a Ferrari, able to producing thousands of tampons a day, while the other structures are like a 500. Unfortunately for the Venetians, the numbers say that this is not enough, because in the end, as in a war, it is the dead that are counted, not the bullets that are fired at the enemy.
Until now, in December Veneto has been 2,396 dead. The Lombardy 3,054, but with a double population. L ‘Emilia romagna recorded 1,771 deaths. In the ranking (remaining to the most populated regions) follow the Piedmont with 1,565 deaths, the Lazio with 1,209, the Campania with 1,046, the Tuscany with 976, the Puglia with 911 and Sicily at 771. The absolute figures are likely to be misleading, even if it is noted that Lombardy, if it were at the level of Veneto, should have around 4,500 deaths. Or that Campania, even with a population of over a million, has far less than half the deaths in Veneto. Or that Lazio, with the same demographic difference, had almost half of the deaths in December.
Translated to number of deaths every 100 thousand inhabitants, these figures show that they have been registered in Veneto 48.8. More than in Emilia-Romagna (39.6 deaths) and Piedmont (around 36). Many more than that Lombardy battered who had it 30.2 per 100,000 inhabitants, or Tuscany (26.2), Puglia (22.7), Lazio (20.6), Campania (18.08) and Sicily (15.5).
The resurgence in Veneto is therefore an incontrovertible fact, which only the leaders of the Region seem not to see. Sonia Brescacina (The president of Grupo Zaia), who is at the top of the Health Commission, said: “It is due to the fact of taking so many daily swabs that the number of positives in Veneto is high. Because we look for them and in a focused way. The left should stop throwing mud on Venetian healthcare, so it does not benefit citizens or their health ”.
More evidence of the escalation is in the number of intensive care positions occupied. On November 25, when Italy reached its peak with 3,848 units, the Veneto had 324 patients in critical unit, equivalent to 8.4 percent of the total (in line with the population). But on December 10, with 358 places filled out of the 3,291 in Italy, it was already in 10.9 percent, On December 20 with 342 of a total of 2,743 went to 12.5 percent, on December 28 with 373 intensive therapies in Veneto out of a total of 2,565 jumped to 14.5 percent.
At the December 29 press conference (Zaia was absent for the first time), Dr. Luciano Flor, the general director of health in Veneto stated: “The mortality data is evaluated on the population and the number of patients. A number alone is not safe. The one-day data is not an indicator, it takes a month and must be related to hospitalized, sick, population, etc. The death toll in northern Italy is higher, for example, that of southern Italy. “And what about Veneto?” Veneto’s mortality figure is quite aligned with the other regions of Upper Italy”.
