In AdnKronos Filippo Anelli, president of the National Federation of the Order of Physicians, regarding the feared risk of an exodus to the South for the Christmas holidays, does not hide some concern and makes a distinction with the exodus of the first wave: “In that the consequences were not as dramatic as feared, also thanks to the closure and the fact that the virus was not as widespread as it is today throughout the country.
In this second wave, for Anelli the situation is very different: “I really don’t know if things are going better in the North or in the South”, he tells the news agency: “Here in Puglia the interpretation is really difficult. that my message is to stay at home because it is safer. There will be opportunities to hug each other and get back together safely “
Ergo, a great sense of responsibility is needed for the doctor: “He respects the measures and trusts the doctors and their instructions. On the other hand, the commissioner Lopalco, in Radionorba, pointed out that “it is necessary to be convinced that the fight against the virus starts from individual behaviors”.
The transition from the orange zone to the yellow zone must not lead the people of Apulia to trust the virus too much. It is true that the Rt index is less than 1 and that in the next few days – according to Lopalco – there will be a significant improvement.
It is true that the network of beds has expanded and there is no longer an overload in health facilities, that the number of patients cured has increased by 240 in the last 24 hours and that the number of hospitalized patients has dropped to 1,796.
It is true that people continue to die a lot, especially in the province of Foggia, from the Covid-19 infection. And if we look at today’s data, the contagion curve has registered an increase in the percentage of new covid-positives.
What is really scary is the new exodus from north to south. For this reason, it is almost certain that the self-report system, which worked during the first wave, when 30,000 Apulians returned, will almost certainly be restored: “Perhaps those who report could reserve at the same time, the quick swab that should be done in one of the many ‘drive through’ in Puglia, “said the health councilor a few days ago.
