While theItaly could change color again, because news could arrive in red, orange and yellow areas after the new expected data related to the monitoring of Covid from the ISS, and despite the fact that Minister Speranza has extended the measures for the red and orange regions in force since November 3 , the Sicilian Governor Nello Musumeci plays beforehand and introduces new measures against the increase in infections.
Sicily Orange Zone
hope had anticipated yesterday’s decision to the president renew its ordinance for all orange areas in Italy, establishing a first technical comparison for next week for a new regional risk assessment.
But Musumeci decided to go ahead by presenting a new ordinance and expansion of the red zone band. The Epidemiological Observatory of the Region has begun monitoring the Districts, expanding the usual assessment of positive incidences by Municipality.
Musumeci’s words
Musumeci’s decision, in agreement with the Councilor for Health Ruggero Razza, and after consulting the mayors of the municipalities concerned, comes after reports from the Prevention departments of the provincial health authorities, which report a increased infections.
“We are in a phase of great attention and I have decided to accompany national and regional decisions with an ordinance that aims to sustain the first positive signs, avoiding the meeting opportunities that we have seen in so many images on Sundays and holidays. published by the media. We ask everyone to make an effort in the next big days ”.
Musumeci explains that “we owe it to healthcare professionals who are demonstrating an unprecedented capacity for intervention, but we also owe it to all economic operators who are facing a difficult time and, ultimately, we owe it to ourselves, because you have to return to a life as normal as possible in the times imposed by the pandemic ”.
In the days to come will continue to monitor contagion rates, with the evaluation of measures to reduce extra-regional mobility, with the adoption of containment protocols shared with local authorities and the screening of carpets in the categories, Musumeci promises.
“We hope – Musumeci hopes – that the measures adopted are always subject to control. If the Dpcm establishes that the Presidents of the Region can adopt more restrictive provisions, in fact, it requires that the controls be carried out by the prefectures. Otherwise, even the hope of limiting contagion fails, unnecessarily exasperating populations from whom sacrifices have been asked. “
