“A Covid hotel in all provinces”, the Commissioner Arcuri the day the government also entrusted him with the batch of hotels for no-care positives on which once again the regions have shown that they are moving late. Even where the structure already exists, and has been futilely proposed for months. It occurs in Varese, a city saved by the first wave and overwhelmed by the second. Already in March, when Covid had only touched him, the mayor had asked Ats Insubria It’s in Lombardy region use “Villa Quiete”, an old health clinic abandoned for three years, in the heart of the city and a few steps from the main covid hospital in Varese. Wanted to make one Hotel Covid where to hospitalize 60 patients positive under surveillance or in recovery, and thus prevent hospitals from being blocked or infecting relatives within the walls of the house.
Exactly the operation that the government has just decided to entrust to commissioner Domenico Arcuri, on the front that should guarantee alternative spaces to hospitals “in which it is possible to guarantee a roof for those who are in isolation at home and you cannot stay home except risk multiplying infections in your family that it is the highest epicenter of the second wave or guarantee adequate attention to those with mild symptoms and that does not mean they should be hospitalized instead of other patients with more serious pathologies ”. In fact, it’s another notary of a competition that in July had been expressly entrusted to regions with poor results to say the least.
In Varese province, the mayor may well testify Davide galimberti. Because a structure had not only requested it already in March, but had also identified it when obtaining the Please of the Court. “The calmIt is a health clinic abandoned since 2017 due to bankruptcy that is located in the center, very close to the only Covid hospital in the city and therefore also in a strategic position. A series of oleanders in a row, a four-story Art Nouveau pink villa with an adjoining building in the heart of the city now overwhelmed with infections and shelters.
“Ats and the Region at that time did not consider it necessary to proceed,” says Galimberti. Then came the second wave that today overwhelmed us and the city, with emergency rooms and wards in enormous difficulty, it does not have any covid hospital despite having many availabilities, not only in Varese but also in the Malpensa area which has dozens of facilities that have been closed for months due to Covid ”.
In short, a delay of eight months that now – in full emergency – presents the bill. How this happened is surreal. In mid-October (only in October), the Region a resolution look for suitable facilities and encourage hoteliers with a contribution per patient. But Ats Insubria only on November 3 issued a ad to find facilities throughout the area. The call will close November 17, after which they must be verified with inspections, adjustments, permits, loan contracts for use, etc. “It is clear – says Galimberti – that a public procedure guarantees transparency but requires very different times. I don’t want the covid hotel to show up at Christmas, maybe during the peak what awaits us. A solution has to be found soon. “
