“Divide et impera”, says the famous Latin saying that could be changed these days: “Covid et impera”.
After the great triumph at the regional level, for the Governor of Campania Vincenzo De Luca the first headaches are coming. Despite the hard punch of the “sheriff” against Covid, which led him to have a good share of support the last time he went to the polls but also to expand the obligation to wear masks even outdoors at any time of day , De Luca limps in the health sector with respect to other pathologies.
Conventional centers dealing with cases of extreme illness and great poverty find themselves in this dry-mouthed phase, leaving thousands of seriously ill or certainly not wealthy users in their own home, waiting for treatments they may never have, unless they pay for the service in the hospital.
In short, a dead end for the less fortunate: a headache behind which it will really be understood if De Luca cares about the health of his citizens as demonstrated by the coronavirus issue.
This is what the investigative journalist asks Francesco Amodeo Living on ‘A Special Day’: Is health really the priority of those who govern us, or is it acting as a versatile campaign point on the shoulders of healthcare?
“Now it is clear that they are treating Covid as if it were the only existing pathology. In fact, we know well that among the most serious is the one with the highest mortality rate and has at least 90% asymptomatic patients.
But why do I say this? Because on the one hand the population is invited to avoid hospitals for outpatient services, and on the other hand it is communicated to the accredited centers (those that must replace the hospitals) that the funds have been exhausted until 2021. What does this mean ? Above all, exempt users (those who have a code either because of their pathology because they are very sick or because of their income because they are extremely poor) accredited in the national health service obviously do not pay for the service.
Well, in these centers De Luca has just said that the funds have been exhausted: the user will be forced to go to the hospital.
Until a few months ago, however, the hospital was blocked from these outpatient services, so as not to endanger their own health and that of others by crowding the waiting rooms.
So, at this moment, a patient who feels symptoms of the disease finds himself dazed between:
- The accredited center that says: if you want to do the service here you have to pay. Even if he is extremely poor or extremely ill;
- Hospitals that close the door in your face.
How it ends? The patient is destined for a crowded ASL garrison.
In practice, on the one hand, De Luca is implementing measures to avoid meetings between healthy people and, on the other hand, he is implementing measures that will provoke meetings between sick people.
But it is also a paradox that millions of euros are spent a day on tampons that are often useless and then go to cut funds for people who need diagnostic tests for much more serious diseases.
Here we have to unmask De Luca: does he really care about the health of citizens, or are they simply electoral points because he sees that the hard fist against Covid rewards him at the polls?“
