Towards new restrictive measures for Friuli Venezia Giulia – Health

According to the Ansa agency, Friuli Venezia Giulia is one of the 4 regions, along with Veneto, Emilia Romagna and Campania, for which the Higher Institute of Health, based on the data of the latest monitoring, considers it appropriate to anticipate the measures. more restrictive. All four regions are currently in the so-called yellow zone, the one with the lowest level of restrictions. The president of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità, Silvio Brusaferro de Udine, had spoken of 4 regions for which restrictive measures had to be provided, without naming names.

No official confirmations have yet arrived on the regions for which anti-contagion measures should be tightened. However, it is very likely that Friuli Venezia Giulia actually appears on this list. The president of the region Massimiliano Fedriga, together with his colleagues from Emilia Romagna Bonaccini and Zaia from Veneto, are thinking about a coordinated restrictive order against meetings.

From the weekly monitoring from the national control room, worrying data emerged in relation to the 21 parameters to which the region belongs. The first resilience alert refers to the percentage of positive swabs, considered too high: excluding screening tests and verification of negativization, more than 23 out of a hundred in Friuli Venezia Giulia were positive, however, exceeded by 8 regions. In early October, about 5 percent traveled. The high rate is the indicator of a system that can no longer intercept many positives.

Then there is an unexpected fact: despite the first informal assurances from the control room, the transmission rate RT was estimated at 1.6, above the danger threshold of one and a half. The report maintains the general risk classification of Friuli Venezia as “moderate with high probability of progression to high risk”.
Meanwhile, the regional civil protection has updated the contagion map, which compared to the first wave is much more colorful: the sign that the virus spreads everywhere, in fact the greatest incidents are in small places, even in the mountain: Carlino has been overtaken by Forni Avoltri, where 19 are positive, 3 out of 100 residents.
