Cheering crowd on the promenade, desperate queue in the emergency room of the Cotugno Hospital; Joyful gatherings in disguise on the beach of the Nuns, rush to rescue the patients, in protective suits, when the ambulances arrive. How distant do the shots we compare on this page seem? Well, know that the photos were taken at the same time in the same city, Naples, at a distance of less than three kilometers in a straight line: on the one hand those who have fallen into the abyss, on the other those who look into the abyss and are certain that they will never end there.
THE NUMBERS
In the last week the wave of contagion COVID-19, in the city of Naples alone, has advanced at a rapid rate of 518 more patients each day. We are well aware that parading the rosary of numbers is a tedious and boring exercise for some people, but we cannot find a more incisive way to explain ourselves.
But what can be done, yesterday there was summer sun, it was Saturday, it seemed like a holiday, so thousands decided that those numbers did not concern them, that the virus battalion deployed and ready to attack could not afford to ruin this October. who knows when it will return. We walked along the boardwalk at eleven and then at 13We saw a growing crowd both on foot and by car, we watched the restaurants fill up, the masks get off, the conviviality crushing the sanitary rigor. We went to Via Toledo first at 10, then at 14, at both times we were overwhelmed by the whisper of the day of celebration with illegal stands and groups of kids without masks; we go up to Vomero in the heart of the morning and in the pedestrian zone we saw a river of people. Then we took a jump to Cotugno and found ourselves in despair with dozens of cars and ambulances lining up in the hope of receiving help. We saw medical personnel carrying oxygen to distressed people lying in the back seat of cars while family members called for help.
Dpcm, tar suspends the ordinance on the closure of schools in Puglia: “Medium critical area”
RESTRICTIONS
We wonder, as perhaps many of you have done: who allows the people at the heart of the most violent lash of the pandemic to continue to rally? Attention, this is not about yellow or red areas, it is simply, trivially, stopping to think and make a decision. Citizens could do it alone, as dozens of doctors implore, living as if they were in a emergency shutdown: but it is evident that thousands of citizens fail to impose rules. Then the regional government was able to decide who promised to do it, but then stopped in front of the protests, violent and non-violent, in the square, and was left to the government’s decisions. Finally, the decision could be made by the mayor, Luigi de Magistris, who has the support of the latter on his side Dpcm– You are allowed to order the closure of certain areas even only for specific days.
Dpcm, De Luca: “Zoning problems, we need unitary measures”
LANGUAGE
Those who want to think badly say that De Magistris has not ordered any closure (as was done instead in Salerno and Pozzuoli, for example) just so as not to give it to the governor De Luca with whom there is a loving exchange of poisonous spikes and more or less big words . Those who want to be definitely bad argue that there were no closures because otherwise the food world would have had too violent a reaction and no one would have forgiven the mayor for this affront. Those who support Dema, on the other hand, invite you to look at the social networks of the mayor who just yesterday morning released a video in which he asks the citizens for rigor and then has fun with a tongue twister to explain why he does not decide. Here it is: «If you close piazza Vanvitelli people will go to piazza Fuga, if you close piazza Fuga they will go to piazza Medaglie d’oro, if you close piazza Medaglie d’Oro they will go to via Luca Giordano. If you close the promenade they will go to Piazza San Pasquale (…) ». Anyway, poor Magistris, how do you decide? There are too many roads in Naples, so you can’t identify which one needs to be closed to save the Neapolitans from contagion.
