This was said by the president of the National Federation of Surgeons and Dentists (Fnomceo), speaking during Timeline on Sky TG24. In addition to the data on hospitalizations, “resuscitation would exceed 5,000 occupied places and even, if the trend were that of last week, we could count 10,000 more deaths,” he added.
“The confinement may represent an important response to the need to block the curve because the data tells us that, if this curve does not cool down, in 30 days we will have about 30 thousand people in the hospital, resuscitation would exceed 5,000 occupied places and Even if the trend were that of last week, we could count 10,000 more deaths. We can’t afford this, we have to evaluate something to do. ” These were the words, spoken during a speech on Timeline, on Sky TG24, by the president of the National Federation of Surgeons and Dentists (Fnomceo), Filippo Anelli.

Anelli then commented on the first results of the new Dpcm, proposed by the Government and the health authorities of our country to try to stop coronavirus infections. “We are facing measures taken by the Government, which we classify as important measures, but despite this I think that in terms of communication, that call for a sense of responsibility that characterized Italian citizens in the first phase of the pandemic has not passed. . Seeing the crowded Italian squares yesterday certainly did not offer us an adequate reflection, that is, that the virus is transmitted through people and citizens should stay at home, “he added.
“Cool the curve before the seasonal flu hits”

An additional problem may now be represented by the imminent arrival of the seasonal flu. “The gradual measures lead us to a gradual reduction of the curve, while unfortunately, by the end of the month, we wait for the start of the flu epidemic,” Anelli said. “This means that, if the epidemic curve does not cool immediately, those of the flu epidemic must join the Covid patients, putting the level of care of the National Health Service in total crisis,” he said raising the alarm. “Every place that is given to treat patients with Covid is subtracted from ordinary care,” he later concluded.
Blocking for the whole country
Meanwhile, in the last hours, Anelli himself had called for a total closure, throughout Italy, in order to respond energetically to the Covid emergency. “Considering this week’s data as a typical trend and if we project it without anticipating further increases, the situation in a month will be dramatic and therefore we must immediately resort to a total closure,” he wrote on the Federation’s Facebook page. . “Either we block the virus or it will block us because the signals tell us that the system does not hold and even the now yellow regions will soon find themselves in the same condition as the most affected areas,” he added. According to Anelli, the situation could also become dramatic in relation to the number of victims: “With the current average, in a month we would reach 10,000 more deaths.”
