Covid, the outburst of Biffoni: “This is not done. Unavoidable restrictive measures”

Prato, November 8, 2020 – A real outburst on your Facebook page to denounce the many, too many wrong behaviors that still exist today, after months of pandemic, they are seen in the streets of Meadow. A situation that will lead, according to the mayor Matteo biffoni, to inevitable new restrictive measures that the mayor hopes will be at the level of the metropolitan area and not of a single municipality.

An outlet, it was said, with the direct and clear tones to which Biffoni has become accustomed in his numerous Facebook direct on the subject of COVID-19. “This is not done. I tell you honestly. Today, only in Prato, 338 positive cases and 3 deaths, but the number is high in much of the Region. The situation – he writes on the social network – is really exhausting for the health system and worries a MeadowAs in the rest of Tuscany, all this means that we do not have time to wait for the new beds, because all ASL Toscana Centro hospitals are in extreme difficulty. Therefore, in my opinion, they seem inevitable more restrictive measures in the Tuscan territory, at least in the metropolitan area. Sorry to say, but it seems to me that without proper measures we will not stop the spread of the infection. And I am equally convinced that there must be uniformity between neighboring territories, because no action at the municipal level would be sufficiently effective.

Then the attack on too many incorrect behaviors seen in the city: crowds in front of bars, especially large groups of young people without masks, and various meetings. “Despite this, on the weekend we have a disproportionate number of reports (and interventions when possible) to behaviors incorrect. Really – concludes Biffoni – I cannot explain why in the face of a pandemic and a treacherous virus that is easy to spread, we still have to resort to fear of a fine and at least we do not get used to respecting the few rules that exist. The controls have also been done this weekend but people will never be corrected one by one and, above all, the controls cannot be the only means. I will bring these considerations to the Crisis Unit permanently convened in the Region. More and more people are in isolation. Help those you know in trouble. On the website of the Municipality you will find active services for those who are in quarantine such as home delivery of medicines or purchases. “
