General blocking tests. From tomorrow until October 30, no more trips from one province to another in Campania. Those who have second homes and still spend the weekend there, but also the kids who thought they were spending a night in a city other than their own must forget it. For at least nine days. Neapolitans will not be able to go to Cilento or the Amalfi Coast, for example. But of course, we must be sure, whoever resides in the second home will do it. He says Alessandro perrella, virologist at the regional crisis unit: “The problem was to precisely control and monitor the origin of the infections. At this moment, the provinces of Naples and Caserta are the most worrying.

In the Prefecture, an evening meeting of the Public Order Committee decided how to organize the controls. The prefect explains Marco Valentini: “We need to understand well how to distribute random controls, between the different police forces and the military that have 100 more units.”
Random checks, with shifts at stations, at highway tolls, including cuts on provincial roads. There are those who may move, declaring in a self-certification that it is for reasons of health, family, work or overtime. At first, it almost seems obvious that there will be some confusion. He says Clemente Mastella, Mayor of Benevento: «It seems to me a sensible measure, of which I spoke with De Luca. It is clear that, especially among young people, there are also long interprovincial trips on weekends. The goal is to stop migratory flows, perhaps in second homes. In Sannio, for example, several Neapolitans have houses in some areas such as Melizzano where they come on Saturdays. By limiting movements, it will be possible to better control the situation.
It is not a total blockade, but a partial regional limitation. IS Italo Giulivo, coordinator of the Campania crisis unit, clarifies: «We had to intervene in a pandemic situation that has worrying data, as highlighted by the Higher Institute of Health. Blocking interprovincial movements allows contact tracing, at a time when there is a general relaxation of attention. Campania has reached a percentage between positives and smears of 13 percent, which is a risk situation. It is necessary to control the flows of those who move without special needs. Hence the decision.
There are those who remember how the introduction of checks in Capodichino in vacation returns allowed identifying three thousand positives. People who moved abroad or to other regions and escaped any possibility of controls in that period.

There are also those who criticize the decision of the Region. Like the mayor of Avellino, Gianluca Festa. He exhibits the positive data in his city that is much inferior to other areas of Campania and says: «I was against the closure of schools, that in Avellino they did not have worrying situations. The blocking of movements between provinces also seems excessive to me. Even in the acute phase, my city only had 40 positive cases. I do not believe, at least in Irpinia, that the conditions exist to only be able to hypothesize a possible confinement. As if a father with two children, of whom only one has done something wrong, without distinction punishes them both.
The decision also creates uncertainty. The president of the Regional Committee of Coni, Sergio Roncelli, he wrote to De Luca. He asked for clarification on how athletes from multiple sports who have to move from one province to another for competitions should behave. He writes: «Mobility is not recognized for the sports world affiliated with Coni, effectively preventing the holding of all regional championships and competitions. It is a competitive activity, not an amateur one, regulated by protocols ». The concern was joined by the president of the National Amateur Football League, Cosimo Sibilia, and the president of the FIGC Regional Committee, Carmine zigarelli. It will be De Luca who will clarify, perhaps considering those movements, as for work. But uncertainty persists, as does the concern of private bus service operators who secure connections between provinces and fear further declines in profits.
“We realize that any restriction is unpopular – explains Italo Giulivo – but we must understand that it is about intervening on the dangers linked to health. The goal is to make it clear that you only need to move out of necessity. The generalized confinement made it possible to keep the situation under control, the uncontrolled movements made it difficult to track them to trace the chain of infections and therefore identify asymptomatic positives. Many asymptomatic people don’t know how they got it. ‘
