There is controversy about the red zone, Giani: “Amareitato”
“The data was good. As a man of the institutions I accept the decision of the Government but I am bitter ”. These are the words of the president of the Giani Region about the closures. The president spoke on a Facebook livestream Friday night.
The Regional Health Agency: “An embarrassing decision”
“An embarrassing decision.” The regional health agency thus recognizes the establishment of the red zone in Tuscany. The shame derives “from a national monitoring system that does not allow time to verify whether the implemented measures have any effect: as in the case of Tuscany, which went from yellow to orange and then to red in the space of a week.” .
But hospitalizations are a big critical problem
As revealed in the Ars report, the hospitalizations are currently in Tuscany are “the greatest criticality”, especially due to the lack of personnel: “At this point,” the experts explain, “we have far exceeded the peak of 1,437 hospitalizations that was reached on April 3, while now we are more than 1,900. New places are being sought to be used as Covid rooms and multiplying the number of beds, but the criticality of the health personnel who must follow this new load of patients remains, which does not seem to be enough.
Positive note: the many tampons
«It is absolutely positive – continues Ars – that the test system is composed from molecular swabs and antigen tests definitely start with 20,000 swabs per day ». “This increase in tests – it is emphasized – has certainly favored the greater appearance of positive cases, which now stands at a weekly average of about 2,300”. Always based on Ars data, to date in Tuscany The deaths from Covid 19 are about 1,800 (2.4% of the positives that emerged during the entire epidemic), with a mortality rate of 1.5 weekly deaths per 100,000 inhabitants, compared to 2 per 100,000 in March -may.
While acknowledging the decision, trade associations I’m on the warpath. “We are disoriented – says Cna – We did not expect such a decision.” And the local economy is shaking, weakened by hard months, which now has to suffer a new lockdown.
