“Cases on the rise, situation worsened”

That the situation is in “strong deterioration” is also reported by the Lazio Region Crisis Unit: “The contagion data are increasing and reaching levels from two months ago, with a growth trend compared to the previous two weeks. The scenario is expected to worsen significantly, the alert level must be kept very high. It is not possible to afford any distraction, the virus with its variants is recovering vigor, the priority now is to interrupt the chain of transmission ”.

Data growth in Lazio

With the new data from the weekly monitoring of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità arriving tomorrow, the region will become the orange zone, now it will be necessary to understand if that color tends more to the dark and therefore the red zone, or not. In addition to the transmission rate of the Rt virus, which marked seven days ago 0.98, very close to the one that triggers the change of band, talking is the occupation of the beds.

On March 9, Lazio exceeded the 30% threshold imposed by the Ministry of Health for intensive care: 31%. And the hospitalizations have been growing for at least a week. For non-critical patients, on the other hand, we are currently around 35%, in line with the 40% threshold, but this figure is constantly increasing.

Analyzing the data of the new cases, what is evident is that in three weeks the infections have doubled, while the relationship between positives and molecular smears has never dropped below 10%, with a constant worsening. On February 25, the ascent began and in the last week with Frosinone he ended up in the red zone. Rome, on the other hand, has essentially held up, even the cases are increasing.
