The Valley is not a red zone due to missing or non-transmitted data as explained yesterday by the president of the Higher Institute of Health Silvio Brusaferro. Rather.
The President of the Region explained it this morning – Friday, November 6 – at a press conference Erik lavevaz: “Not a few data not transmitted due to work overload have changed the sanitary and epidemiological profile of our Region. In fact, if they had called the area statewide, probably in today’s ordinance we would have instituted it, as did Bolzano”.
Not only that: “Only some data was sent a few days late – continues the president – and they are not the most important on the number of positives or on hospitalized or sick people, but on more statistical topics that must be sent weekly and monthly and that require some elaboration. We were aware of the ‘bottleneck’ in some structures and with the rapid increase in cases, it has become difficult to trace contacts ”.
Or rather, adds Lavevaz, the “Red zone” has a very clear origin: “Some data are absolutely irrefutable: the number of positives with respect to the population that see the Aosta Valley at the top, e a saturation rate of health facilities that now sees critical thresholds”.
The health situation
Concept that also scores Roberto BarmasseCouncilor for Health: “It is not because of the transmission of data that Valle d’Aosta is in the ‘red zone’. If so, he would be the happiest Health Councilor in Italy. The problems are related to our health situation.. As of September 3, the region had 1,246 cases, on November 5 it went to a total of 3400 almost. An increase of 2,155 cases. We had a large overload on structures in a short time”.
Charge that continues. In fact, today’s data speaks of 14 people in intensive care, 2 more than yesterday, and 172 hospitalized for Covid disease, divided between the “Parini”, the Isav de Saint-Pierre and the other structures.
Add to this health professionals who contract the infection, which aggravate the problem of staff shortages: “We have 9 doctors, 42 nurses, 3 OTS, 1 midwife, 4 physiotherapists and 4 positive technicians. It is important to reiterate that we are providing all the services we have to provide, and that there have been difficulties but our medical care is facing the emergency both in the hospital and in the territory, They are giving 50% and I thank them. Data transmission is secondary compared to the exceptional burden on the health system in recent days. That is why we are in the ‘red zone’. If the state had not done it that way, we would have put ourselves, also because the measures do not take effect immediately but in two weeks, and it was urgent make immediate decisions”.
