The mayor of Milan, Giuseppe Sala and the one in Naples, Luigi De Magistris they wrote a letter to the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, to request clarification on the statements made yesterday, Tuesday, October 27, by the ministry’s consultant Walter Ricciardi who spoke of a selective closure for “Milan and Naples”.
“This morning we spoke with the mayor of Naples, Luigi de Magistris, because yesterday the consultant of the Ministry of Health, Professor Ricciardi, evoked a blockade in Naples and Milan – Sala explained in a video on his social networks -. We wrote to the minister to ask him if that is an opinion from your advisor or is it a ministry opinion and, if it was an opinion of the ministry, if it is based on data and information that the ministry has and we don’t.
The question is whether the two cities are closed or not. Yesterday the governor of Lombardy, Attilio Fontana, said “there are no conditions for closure” and to have “another 15-20 days available“But for several epidemiology experts, the margin would be quite small, especially since hospitals are in trouble. Even the prime minister Giuseppe Conte does not rule out a confinement: “If we respect the rules we have a good chance to face December with serenity, otherwise there will be a blockade,” Conte said. In addition, yesterday Fontana flatly denied news of the Delivery courier according to which the plan was ready to launch a blockade in Lombardy.
Guido Bertolini, in charge of the COVID-19 Coordination for Lombard’s Emergency Department departments, illustrated an exponential growth curve of infections, “the only thing you can do is close everything, a national shutdown. The situation in the emergency rooms is dramatic, not only in Lombardy, but throughout the country ”. Sacco’s director of infectious diseases is also pessimistic. Massimo Galli: “We may not have to wait.”
Second Fabrizio Pregliasco Virologist at the University of Milan, on the other hand, we can wait: “We waited 15-20 days to evaluate the effects,” he says, reporting a recent study in the scientific journal. Lancet (on which Fontana’s claims are also based) that “tells us that I first effects of the measures non-pharmacological ones are already appreciated 8 days after introduction “.
