In the region there are 1,325 more positive subjects in the 24 hours, 12068 the positive ones registered as of October 22. The president sounds the alarm to doctors and nurses. More restrictive rules arrive but without blocking for now
VENEZIA. In Veneto there are 1,325 more positive subjects for Coronavirus in 24 hours, 12068 positive today. 588 are hospitalized in Venetian hospitals and 66 are in intensive care (unchanged from the last survey yesterday), but Zaia warns: “There is pressure in Venetian hospitals”
And there is a new scenario on the way that could put our health in more trouble: “There is an alert for the overlap of Covid symptoms and seasonal flu.
That is why the Region has deployed the heavy gunner: intensive care beds have doubled “The thousand intensive care places in Venetian hospitals – they were just under 500 – are real, prepared: the rooms are equipped,” he said. the President of the Region at today’s daily press conference, Thursday, October 22
There is an alert in hospitals and for this reason the governor is ready to issue an anti-assembly ordinance also in Veneto.
“For Monday, I will make an ordinance with greater restrictions that will not prevent the closure, it will be exclusive for activities, but it will refer to meetings and similar things.” This was stated by the President of Veneto, Luca Zaia, who explained that “there is tension in hospitals, but growth in intensive care is slow.” “Infections are growing in Veneto,” Zaia noted, noting that more swabs are being done, however. The problem for the president is “to avoid the collapse of the regional health system”
Recalling the Covid emergency management document, Zaia announced what the next step will be if resuscitation hospitalizations continue to rise.
“Around 150 patients in intensive care, we are closing 10 hospitals that will be removed from ordinary care and will only be Covid. In March, one in three infected ended up in intensive care, now this is not the case. Now it’s one in 9. The figure has become very weak. We need to promote home care.
The mistake would be to hospitalize the symptoms that are not serious: as long as there is saturation in the blood there is no need for hospitalization, you spend 3-4 days at home with a fever ”, emphasizes the president.
The current situation is not an emergency, but the experience of March has shown that the Covid problem primarily affects hospital health
“After 40 days since February 21 we have reached the ICU peak. Now the curve is growing but we still have to understand its evolution, compared to March the growth of ICUs is slow compared to the increase in positives.
The stable situation of the intensive care does not leave the regional health technicians calm: “We must be on alert. In a few days I will issue an ordinance that will create less contact between citizens, not confinement.”
Zaia, however, recalled that Veneto is no longer in an emergency situation: “We have beds, we have treatments and all hospitals have protective equipment in stock for at least the next eight months.”
