“It is difficult to find recipes that make everyone happy.” This was stated by the president of the Higher Health Council, Franco Locatelli, when illustrating the positions of the control room during the press conference of the Ministry of Health on the analysis of the epidemiological situation linked to the Coronavirus emergency. “Nobody underestimates the impact of a closure of ski activities, but current figures do not support a reopening hypothesis because it would expose the entire country to a resumption of the epidemic curve and having a European consultation is absolutely essential,” he said. Frank. Locatelli talks about skiing again, answering a question on the subject. It is one of the most debated issues in view of the Christmas holidays that affects the economy of many small mountain villages, with thousands of jobs, including interested seasonal workers and many commercial activities, which during the Christmas period, collect a large part of your turnover.
Traveling for Christmas is a risk
“I cannot deny my concern, certainly the unlimited trips for Christmas and aggregations represent a risk of spreading the infection. Then we will see what the decisions will be for next month, “said Gianni Rezza during the press conference at the Ministry of Health. More than 800 dead today, Locatelli added, “should remind us that we are not out of trouble at all. There may be a middle way which, for example, may refer to restrictions after certain hours or not to create ample moments of sociability. “

Go ahead with the adopted strategy
“Compared to the number of deaths, which should remind us to continue with the adopted strategy, the swab-case ratio is 12.31%, the number of accesses to intensive care is 6 compared to 120 a week ago, and Las hospitalizations are 120 in the medical area against 528 a week ago. Then the indicators go in the desired direction. This was what Franco Locatelli said at the press conference of the Ministry of Health on the analysis of the epidemiological situation linked to the Coronavirus emergency.
The school plays a marginal role in the contagion curve
“The school – explained Locatelli – also in the latest analyzes carried out it is confirmed that it contributes absolutely marginally to the SarsCov2 transmission curve. The potential to infect more than 10 years is the same as in adults, while those under 10 years is less, but not absent.
Deaths increase, the burden on health facilities remains
The Director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Gianni Rezza, recalling the data recorded on November 24 (23,232 positives, with 188,659 swabs, while yesterday there were 149,000, and therefore there was a slight increase in the number of positives), stressed that however “there is a bad data: there were 853 deaths compared to 630 yesterday”. The burden on health structures remains, explained Rezza, “so the cautious optimism is offset by the fact that the effects of this long The path will be seen for some time. The decrease in positives is, instead, the effect of the measures. “
