These are the statements made by Luca Zaia, Governor of Veneto, at the usual press point: “There are provinces where the decline in infections is more visible and others where the curve is currently flat. We have had gradual growth from day one, now we expect it to decline. We have 600 more hospitalizations than in the first wave also because there was no closure. To succeed in Veneto, there will be 1% of the population with the virus. I no longer know in what language to explain that we have a one-of-a-kind test model, that is, that we do a massacre of swabs, and therefore the positive figure is high for this reason. It seems absurd to me that we insist on not understanding it ».

These are the statements of Dr. Francesca Russo from the Prevention Department: «The standardized is comparable, if instead, as in this case, we have different methodologies, they are not comparable. The Lazio Region, for example, has eliminated the search for positivity from asymptomatic close contact unlike us. Our diagnostic capacity is very high, so our percentage of positive swabs in those carried out is not comparable to that of other regions. We noticed a slight and timid drop in new positives. We currently have 85.5% asymptomatic positives. Until the vaccine arrives I feel trapped, we cannot think of living in a system of tension and relaxation and being afraid of meeting people.
