That Matteo Salvini has not guessed one since the outbreak of the pandemic is a well-established fact, just go and find his statements that from March onwards have fluctuated – sometimes in just 24 hours – from “let’s close everything” To “Let’s open everything”, from “below the mask” to “above the mask”. But as long as we are exclusively on the level of political propaganda, it does not harm anyone except his leadership and ultimately himself. But when it turns out that the policies carried out in the year of the yellow-green government – in this case the Quota 100 workhorse – are helping to disrupt a healthcare system that is already on the brink of sustainability, then the judgment changes. And since tragedy is often accompanied by farce, his party colleagues are now forced to make a double ideological abjure to remedy the mistake: ask for doctors abroad (who are not “Italians first”) and besides, you hate Ong so much (Do you remember Carola Rackete?).
These are the facts and need no further comment. Northern League player Alessandro Stecco, chairman of the Piedmont Health Commission, has launched a desperate call for as many doctors and nurses as possible to come to the region, given severe hospital shortages due to spike infections and Covid hospitalizations. “It is time to take advantage of all the available resources – says Stecco -, as has happened and will happen with the reinforcements from Cuba and China. At a difficult time for my region, I wonder if those NGOs that manage hospitals and staff in various international contexts, which may be going through a different pandemic phase than the European one, can immediately send us medical and nursing staff to help us out. to one of the parts of Italy most affected by Covid according to the hospitalization rate. “
It is a pity, however, that this appeal was also made by the League itself. As the latest INPS report shows, the application of Quota 100 – the mechanism that allows retirement before legal requirements for three years – has deprived our health system of precious resources to face the blow of the virus. Reading the report, it turns out that as of December 31, 2019, 7,225 NHS employees have retired early. More than seven thousand doctors and nurses who would certainly have been useful today, in Piedmont but not only. Bitter irony of fate, without Quota 100 many of these health workers would have had to work at least a couple of years more, or for all of 2020 and 2021, it is unnecessary to do it on purpose the hardest for our country, waiting for a possible vaccination . Mass can decongest the load in emergency rooms and hospitals.
