The great Lombardy region who will buy from 150 thousand vaccines against influenza For more 2.7 million euros? From a small dental practice in Bolzano. Looks like one jokeInstead, it’s the latest installment of the board’s mess Attilio fontana about a vaccination campaign that started late and with insufficient doses after an incredible sequence of errors. So much so that on October 28 the last announcement of Aria, the regional shopping center. The tenth, a flash notice it only stayed open 24 hours. However, there is enough time for an offer to arrive before October 29, that of study Dr. Mak and Dr. D’Amico Srl, a company that, as its main activity, manages a dental practice in Bolzano.
The study has an online site registered in 2007 and until recently linked to one company put into liquidation and, according to documents available in the chamber of commerce, it closed in 2017. The new company, on the other hand, was born a little over a month ago, with a deed of incorporation signed in Bolzano on September 30, 2020, just weeks before winning the Lombardy region tender. The dentist are administrators and partners Lars D’Amico and the orthodontic specialist Rozmary Mak D’Amico. The services offered on site to patients range from oral surgery to oral aesthetics, prevention and dental care. Without reference to vaccine trade, although the corporate purpose informed in the statute establishes that in addition to the more traditional activities of a dental consultation, the company can also deal trade in “sanitary products and equipment” and more generally of “industrial, commercial and financial transactions, of securities and real estate, considered necessary and useful for the achievement of the corporate purpose and with it directly or indirectly related”.
The tender received by Doctors Mak and D’Amico had a starting price of € 1.95 million by 150 thousand doses of vaccine quadrivalent for adults, 13 euros a dose. Your company submitted an offer, the only one that reached Aria, for 120 thousand doses of Influvac Tetra at € 17.85 one and 30 thousand of FluQuadri at 18.90 each, for a total of more than 2.7 million. A good shot for one incipient society and with a social capital of only 10 thousand euros. It certainly managed to do better than the Lombardy region in the race for the coveted vaccines, and then resell them at a higher price. Each dose will cost the Region more than triple the € 5.90 that were offered with the first tender, were not awarded because the price was higher than the starting price. Better than him 400 thousand doses paid 26 euros At one o’clock after the ninth announcement, he noticed the opening of an investigative investigation by the Milan prosecutor.
But why this time, to buy flu vaccines, did the Region turn to a dentist’s office? Contacted by ilfattoquotidiano.it, the councilor for welfare Giulio Gallera abbreviated: “I I don’t deal with competitions, you have to talk to Aria. ” Then it depends on contact Lorenzo Gubian, which replaced Filippo Bongiovanni as general manager of the shopping center after the case of the dresses bought by the family business of Fontana’s wife: “The company that presented the offer is a economic operator“I don’t know if it’s also a dental office,” he answers. The verification of the requirements based on the contracting code is in progress, if the economic operator respects them, it has the right to supply, otherwise it will not be able to do so ”. But isn’t it strange that the Region buys vaccines at a dental office? “If the economic operator it is not a pharmaceutical companyIt will be an intermediary as in many tenders for health products. If it has the requirements to do so, there is no problem from the point of view of legitimacy ”. On the other hand, two phone calls to the reception of the dental office are useless: “I left this to one of the owners,” a lady responds. But the owner will no longer call.
