Apulia goes from orange to yellow with a new ordinance in force since December 6 by the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, based on data from the control room that was carried out yesterday, despite the fact that it results in the general classification “High” risk in the weekly follow-up (23-29 November) of the Higher Institute of Health, together with Sardinia and Calabria, considered not evaluable and, therefore, equated to high risk. High ranking that has lasted more than three weeks, another condition of which is one special surveillance.
In addition, Puglia, as highlighted in the press conference on the analysis of data from the regional Covid19 monitoring of the control room by the president of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità, Silvio Brusaferro, is the only region with a moderate probability of circulation of the virus. in the territory – for all other regions it is low – condition that affects the classification. The evaluation answers three questions: if new cases have been reported in the last 5 days, if there is evidence of an increase in transmission and if the Region / Public Administration declares a generalized transmission in its territory that cannot be managed effectively with local measures. The affirmative answer to the first two and negative to the third generates the evaluation of moderate probability, if so, at three it would be high.
There are twenty-one indicators in total that contribute to the division of the regions into the different areas, configuring three different scenarios, but the critical factors highlighted by the ISS are certainly not negligible.
The president of the Puglia region, Michele Emiliano, attributes the reclassification sanctioned by Minister Speranza to the resilience of the health system: “It was maintained thanks to the programming carried out in the hospital network, which allowed us to expand the number of beds as we needed them, multiplying the intensive care units dedicated to covid patients, the medical area and the so-called post-acute beds” .. Admit that the healthcare organization has it anyway “so many things to improve and correct”, but also adds that it really is a feat Support the impact of covid with thousands of fewer personnel whose hiring is still not allowed today and with hundreds of millions of euros less that the national health system does not provide us. “. And lower the negative comments.
Soon after, not even 40 minutes, it slows down, the enthusiasm gives ‘free to all’: “No one is allowed to indulge in crazy joy”. The risks, he realizes, “they are still very high”. And then he focuses again on the provinces of Foggia and Bat: after 15 days of “very high infections” now he says, “They have stabilized, but I do not rule out applying restrictions to these territories”. Based on the previous post, correct the shot (only with respect to the figures) of the results obtained thanks to the health organization and the effort of the operators: “We have resisted a wave of infections 10 times higher than that of March-April, which slightly exceeded 4 thousand, and in the second wave it reached 42 thousand.”
He specified twice that the yellow zone is a decision of the Minister of Health and not of the Puglia Region, to avoid misunderstandings, perhaps also because he was overwhelmed by criticism on social networks. There are more negative comments under his statements that speak of the claims of Downloadbarile and Pilato, in addition to contesting the celebration of the health organization. It is a debacle and it is difficult to find consensus. Everyone dismisses the president.
Many have been puzzled by the decision to expand the constraint mesh and wonder if everything will really be okay. A mixture of concern and outrage circulates in the province of Foggia and the prevailing sentiment is certainly not euphoria. “In January we will pay the consequences”, “We will go directly to the red zone”, “I turned green with rage”, “Just crazy”, they write Foggia and no. Although the contagion curve is dropping, the numbers are certainly not reassuring, and deaths, whether they refer to a single day or more due to a notification issue, are a punch to the chest. Perhaps, it is just the hour of responsibility.
