Six of the six positions occupied in the department of Intensive care Dell ‘San Salvatore dell’Aquila Hospital, led by the teacher Franco Marinangeli. A number for the moment “still manageable, thanks to the work we are doing to expand the hospital’s capacity and the availability of Pescara, which has free places. There net with other ASL allows us at this time to face the impact force of COVID-19 with certain agility. “Thus, Professor Marinangeli a IlCapoluogo.it on the health emergency situation in L’Aquila.
Among the problems of this new phase of the emergency the “Tampon psychosis”: “To the extent that there is a normal flu phase, it is partly understandable that there are concerns that lead to thinking about Covid 19. Therefore, the run to the tampon that creates harm, because if everyone is rushing to ask for tests, ASL can’t do it and anything goes to the detriment of the truly sick“.
But there is also a “psychological aspect” to the unbridled race for the tampon: “In a sense, a kind of ‘Dirty conscience’ amplifies psychosis, because those who have had behaviors that are not in line with the ongoing emergency are led to think about Covid. Right now there is generally a better attitude, also due to the fearbut in the recent past there has been misconduct. If you behave correctly, you have very little to fear from the virus.. Of course, it is also possible to wear it in a family environment, where the mask is difficult to wear, but in that case the Local Health Authority is already activated, which nevertheless lives a situation of difficulty induced by an unjustified psychosis ”. In short, “there is a discourse of real numbers, people who are sick from Covid 19, but there are also other numbers that create objective difficulties for the system, without a specific reason.”
And as for the “real” patients, Healthcare is adjusting the game: “At first we handled the emergency suddenly, we did not know the roads and the times, we closed the operational blocks to dedicate ourselves to Covid 19. Now that we know what of anyway we must prepare to handle the emergency at least until next summerIt is clear that there is a need to organize ourselves in a more structured way, to face the shock wave, without neglecting non-Covid patients. We do not have to convert beds, but increase the capacity of the rooms“.
“At this moment – Professor Marinangeli emphasizes – we have a margin of tolerance with regard to the emergency and I hope that rules getting started can keep these numbers manageable; I am not under the illusion that they will be reset, but I hope that what we are preparing is enough to face the shock wave ”.
But are we really in the presence of a “different” virus compared to the first wave? “We cannot make comparisons, because initially few swabs were made compared to today. My impression is that nothing has changedExcept that today we can intervene earlier than in the past, but it is too early to assess whether the prognosis is better or worse ”.
In conclusion, “the only way to avoid the problem is to avoid contagion through unfair behavior, more: impeccable“.
