For the Lombard Councilor for Welfare Giulio Gallera of Forza Italia, once again in the crosshairs of the majority of the center-right that governs the region led by the Northern League Attilio fontana, this is a new picnic. In the morning, he responded to the crossfire of the majority and the opposition at the Pirellone Health Commission on handling the Covid emergency. In the afternoon his work, but also his future role, will be at the center of a majority summit in the presence of Governor Fontana, the group leaders from the entire center-right and the coordinators of the parties that govern the Lombard junta. A part of the Lega group, but also of Forza Italia, in the Regional Council is pushing for a reorganization or for Gallera to join a technical committee or a super commissioner in the future.
Candidates for the technical committee
A kind of “sanitary cordon” after the new debacle of bids for the supply of influenza vaccines that started late and those awarded by Aria, the purchasing center of the Lombardy Region without the necessary international certification. Others, on the other hand, are pressing for a reorganization and for the appointment of a technician to head the Gallera department. For the guidance of the technical committee, the concrete commissioning hypothesis has been circulated Carlo Lucchina. The historic Lombard general director of health from the time of Roberto Formigoni. The former CEO was totally acquitted of the trial in which he was involved. A sensational choice, but the interested party, for now, resists. Let him know that you are not interested in the job. “Trivelli is already there, now we have to think about Covid” (the current director general of the Department of Social Welfare of Lombardy, Luigi trivelli. He also CL). The name of the Maronian senator also circulated Maria Cristina CantùBut precisely because he is close to the former Minister of the Interior of the League, Salvini would not appreciate his curriculum. In fact, it looks like Lucchina would have left a crack open. Make it clear, however, that we do not want positions with legal responsibilities. For a role on the committee I would also be contacted Alberto Zangrillo, but would have declined the invitation, while the virologist should be part of it Fabrizio Pregliasco.
“In this period I want to take care and I am dealing with the problems related to the epidemic and the treatment of the Lombards. At the moment I am only dealing with this,” Governor Fontana said about the Gallera case, on the sidelines of the opening. of the Drive through for antigenic buffers in via Novara in Milan. But the problem remains firm in the majority debate.
Gallera under protection for months
The super-commissioner hypothesis would, in any case, be a further step towards another reduction in Gallera’s role. For months, in fact, and by decision of the same majority, any measure proposed by the Lombard councilor for Welfare must first obtain the approval not only of the board, but also of all group leaders of the center-right parties. In addition to the presidents and deputies of the main commissions of Pirellone. A fact that in the fifty years of history of the Lombardy region is unprecedented. Fontana is known to want to avoid a shakeup at least until the end of the pandemic, but the discontent in the ranks of the center-right is increasingly evident. Also because the heads of all the commissions must be renewed soon as is the practice in the middle of the legislature. That is why the work of some “firefighters” has multiplied in recent hours.

The very leader of the League, Matteo salviniHe said in the last hours that “now we don’t have time to reorganize, but we help people.” This statement, however, does not exclude the hypothesis of the appointment of a super commissioner or a committee of technicians to support Gallera. While for the Lombard coordinator of Forza Italia, Massimiliano Salini, the reorganization now would be “pure madness”.
The majority assembly was initially convened to summarize the work of the health reform trials approved by Roberto Maroni in 2015, whose trial expires at the end of the year. A passage that in the end could be the decisive one for the definition of who will manage Lombard health in the new phase of the emergency due to the Covid 19 epidemic.
A flurry of questions to Gallera in the Health Committee
During the two-hour commission hearing, Gallera was harassed by questions from both the opposition and the majority councilors. In the center, the issue of contact tracing, in extreme difficulty especially in Milan, where in recent days an email in which the Ats advised a patient, given the difficulties of the system and the long times to obtain a tampon, the test is paid and not by the public health service. “An extremely unhappy communication,” says the commissioner. That, however, is struggling to respond to the barrage of councilors – in the flu vaccination campaign that, until now, is fighting in Lombardy, in the Covid hotels that are still missing, in the health personnel who today have a number very high contagion– and promises feedback for enrolled in the questions.

At the same time, however, Gallera tries to reassure: “The Rt index for Lombardy is now around 1.5; that of Milan between 1.2 and 1.3”, says the commissioner. , speaking of a “significant” slowdown thanks “to the actions implemented by the Lombardy Region in mid-October”, and anticipating that in the coming days we will see the effects of the measures of the government Dpcm that transformed Lombardy into the red zone.
He then announced an acceleration in terms of quick swabs: “From today to the end of December, 3.6 million will arrive and will be carried out in Lombardy: 1.2 million tests have been purchased by the Region thanks to a tender that it saw as the leader the Veneto Region, while another 2.4 million will come from the commissioner headed by Arcuri “.
