Today’s processing on the heads took place yesterday, December 10. 124 positives of which 4 residents and domiciled outside the region. 914 swabs. These are the main data reported in the synthetic summary extracted this morning at 10.
The positive aspects found concern: 1 person residing in Calabria and isolated in Potenza, 1 person residing in Emilia-Romagna and in isolation in Atella, 1 person from Moldova in isolation in Potenza, 16 people residing and in isolation in Puglia, 1 person residing in and in isolation in Emilia Romagna, 1 resident in Acerenza, 2 in Atella, 2 in Avigliano, 1 in Brienza, 1 in Calvello, 5 in Ferrandina, 1 in Forenza, 2 in Gallicchio, 5 in Lagonegro, 4 in Latronico, 6 in Lauria, 3 in Lavello, 6 in Maschito, 5 in Matera, 11 in Melfi, 1 in Miglionico, 1 in Moliterno, 1 in Montemilone, 10 in Muro Lucano, 3 in Oppido Lucano, 1 in Palazzo San Gervasio , 3 in Pomarico, 9 in Potenza, 3 in Rionero in Vulture, 1 in Salandra, 1 in San Fele, 6 in Tito, 1 in Tramutola and 8 in Venosa
Currently there are 131 people hospitalized in Lucanian hospitals: in Potenza 37 patients are hospitalized in the infectious diseases ward, 7 in intensive care, 32 in pulmonology and 9 in emergency medicine at the San Carlo hospital; in Matera 27 people are in the infectious diseases ward, 8 in intensive care and 11 in pulmonology at the ‘Madonna delle Grazie’ hospital.
138 people healed.
6 people died, 1 in Bernalda, 1 in Latronico, 1 in Melfi, 1 in Montescaglioso, 1 in Potenza and 1 in Rionero in Vulture.
The most important data of the day is that the contagion curve begins to rise again: the positivity index 13.7% compared to 7.8% yesterday and 5.5% the day before yesterday.
Therefore, the trend towards a significant decrease in positivity does not seem to be confirmed. However, we will have to wait a few more days to better understand the trend, perhaps photographed on a greater number of pads.
Our positivity index is calculated including non-residents, but domiciled in Basilicata, since they express epidemiological data at the local level. But it is still inaccurate, because it is not possible to distinguish the number of swabs performed on non-residents. The Region should communicate the disaggregated data of the swabs performed to residents and non-residents, as well as to asymptomatic and symptomatic patients and by age group, in this way we could have a much clearer picture of the regional epidemiological situation.
The positivity rate calculated by the task force is even more inaccurate because all swabs are counted, but only in relation to positive cases from residents. This method causes the positivity index to drop incorrectly.
