The mayor of the Milanese capital wrote a letter to the Minister of Health to request clarification on the statements made by the ministry’s consultant, who spoke of a “necessary” closure in the city: “I look at the data, I don’t think they are right in this point”.
The mayor of Milan, Giuseppe Sala, and that of Naples, Luigi de Magistris, wrote a letter to the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, to ask for clarification on the statements made by the consultant of the ministry, Walter Ricciardi, who spoke of a confinement ” . necessary “in the two cities. To this statement, in addition to the mayor (LE PAROLE DI SALA), the governor of Lombardy, Attilio Fontana, also responded yesterday, who reported that he excluded “that the conditions exist to predict hypotheses of this type” (GLI UPDATES – MAPS AND GRAPHICS OF THE CONTAGION – THE SITUATION IN MILAN AND LOMBARDY).
The letter
“This morning we spoke with the mayor of Naples, Luigi de Magistris, because yesterday the consultant of the Ministry of Health, Professor Ricciardi, evoked a blockade in Naples and Milan – Sala explained in a video on his social networks -. We wrote to the minister to ask him if that is an opinion of his advisor or an opinion of the ministry and, if it was an opinion of the ministry, if it is based on data and information that the ministry has and we do not.
“The running of the bulls in Milan is the wrong choice”
The confinement in Milan at the moment – Sala reiterated – “from what I observe is a bad choice. It is my responsibility and I think with my head and heart, I look at the data, we have less than 300 intensive therapies, we have had 1,700, they are growing But we are making sacrifices and we will see what happens. Today there is the issue of having the elderly at home, it is brutal but 90% of deaths are over 70, there is a problem of creating hospitalization spaces for asymptomatic patients, for quarantines and we are working with Ats and the Region. ”The mayor then concluded:“ There is time for controversy and collaboration but I do not think it is correct to close at this point and I say it knowing that there are two parties, even among citizens, there are those who say ‘ close all ‘and who’ can’t ‘”.
