There are 1,306 new infected with Covid in Sicily identified in the last 24 hours of the 9,963 swabs processed (13% positive), but the data that jumps out is that for the first time in weeks hospitalized patients (on the day in that the inspectors of the Ministry are in Sicily) are less than yesterday: 1,601 against 1,604 in the previous bulletin. A “-3” which can lead to cautious optimism, combined with the model developed by the University of Palermo expect a downward curve in the next few days. Provided, of course, comply with the restrictions and rules follow the anti-contagion (masks, gels and spacing). On the other hand, the number of occupied intensive care places remained stable (243, as yesterday). Obviously this is only a “balance”, because the data with new hospital admissions are not available.

Unions: Doctors Hired and Left in Uncertainty
Hiring doctors and contracts signed without indicating the place and operational unit of assignment. This is what Anna Zizza (in the photo inside), company secretary of Fials Medici, Angelo Collodoro del Cimo, Antonino Lo Cicero of Anaao-Assomed and Bruno Pinzello of Fesmed. In a note, the unions request the ASP of Palermo to expressly indicate, as required by legislation and the collective agreement, “the transfer of the headquarters and the operating unit because its omission constitutes a violation of the mandatory norms and there is no decision discretionary of the company “.
According to Fials, Anao, Cimo and Fesmed “the motivation that occurs in individual contracts, to assign the places that will be available after internal mobility and the processes of accommodation of surpluses, does not seem understandable, since these had to be carried out before hiring new staff. Considering that the emergency situation does not derogate from the procedures established by law and current contracts, this administration will adapt quickly ”.
The physicians unions report that “numerous reports of procedures have reached the union in which the physicians signed without knowing the locations and operating units of assignment, but making generic reference to the departments, an insignificant element considering the specialties of the individual managers. “. Zizza, Lo Cicero, Collodoro and Punzello reiterate, therefore, that” when assigning the seats to the winners of the contest, the administration does not have discretionary power to manage the procedures and discretionary assessment of the different situations, since the destination is the final act of a typical bankruptcy procedure, which is governed by the announcement and constitutional principles. “
