Once upon a time there was the myth of efficiency Lombard, the illusion that theautonomy It would have exalted a region that felt retained by the central state and presented itself as a model for the country, even for Europe. Then came the tragedy of coronavirus, first in the Lodi area, then in the province of Bergamo and finally in all of Lombardy. It would be ruthless to go back to the mistakes of the dramatic days of February and March, because the mitigation granted to a region first hit by the tsunami is undeniable. COVID-19. The following months, however, show flaws in handling the epidemic. Even when calm returned and there was time to regroup, many things did not work out.

DELAYS
Examples: Malpensa airport, tampons for those returning from risk countries such as Greece, Spain, Croatia and Malta. While in Fiumicino (in that Rome that Milan has always looked at with a sense of superiority) the antigenic swabs to which they land are made in a few minutes and after half an hour the result is delivered, in Malpensa there was a half failure: no Only the swabs at the airport left very late and with a blunder (they claimed to offer the service only to Lombard travelers), but there are passengers who remain imprisoned at home for 8-10 days because the result does not arrive. The Lombardy Region and the local health company justified themselves saying that the fault lies with a defective machinery of the private laboratory that has to process the tests, so much so that the paradox has arisen that the swabs, for the answer, were sent in Germany and Portugal.
Speaking of sending material abroad: the other day Lombardy decided to send masks to Kazakhstan. Why? In March, in the midst of the crisis, Lombardy runs out of masks and, through its shopping center, turns to a company in Rho, which usually produces diapers. The production of those that will go down in history, such as diaper masks, began immediately, immediately contested by doctors and nurses because they were neither sterilized nor filtered.
And yet 18 million were purchased, at a cost of more than 8 million euros. And the other day, as La Stampa revealed, the Lombardy Region decided to buy another quantity and send a substantial part, a million and a half, to Kazakhstan as a gift. According to the doctors, they are useless, you have to take them by passing them over your head, and the Cobas have also filed a complaint with the Prosecutor’s Office after which a file was opened.
In the motion of censure to Fontana, presented by the minority in the regional council and later rejected, we read: “The diaper masks were useless since they saw a warehouse of stock for an amount of 14.5 million masks, equal to 90% of the offer “. There is another story on which the Milan prosecutor’s attention has focused: the transfer without tender, on April 16, of a supply of 75,000 gowns and other protective devices for more than half a million euros to Dama, from the that Governor Fontana’s brother-in-law is an administrator. As you may recall, custody was changed to a donation following a report from the service that spoke of a potential conflict of interest. Now the investigation is on the path of international requests for the complication of Fontana’s account of 5.3 million euros in Switzerland, shielded five years ago and from the accounts associated with two trusts in the Bahamas created by the mother of the Lombard president.
RSA
Late swabs, masks, investigations into the gowns bought by the company linked to the governor’s relatives: it does not seem like the curriculum of a model region that with autonomy will become an example of efficiency in Italy and Europe. But even more dramatic was the failure, in the midst of the coronavirus crisis, of the management of RSA: in Lombardy, according to data from the Higher Institute of Health, 45 percent of the elderly who died in nursing homes had symptoms of Covid. Family members point the finger at the option of sending coronavirus patients to the RSA, because places in hospitals had been exhausted. The various prosecutors in Lombardy also have many open files in this regard.
