To date, we are not in a position to close the schools in Abruzzo.
That’s what it says Lorenzo Sospiri, president of the regional council, after the meeting this morning, Monday, November 16, on the organization of schools in our region.
The Forza Italia exponent takes stock of the situation after yesterday’s announcements that indicated the closure of schools at all levels with the establishment of the red zone after participating in the online meeting with the director of the Region’s Health Department. , Claudio D’Amario.
“Today we are not in the structural conditions to think about closing primary schools, that is, kindergarten, primary and secondary schools,” says Sospiri, “as long as the contagion rate of RT remains at the current figure, 1.34 , there are no conditions to close factories or companies, so parents must be able to work safely, knowing that their children are in the classroom to take their lessons, and mothers cannot be forced to leave work to take care of the little ones . that through a screen tries to teach at a distance and cannot do it physically alone. Health, without a doubt, precedes everything else, but without terrorizing the territory, but adopting the correct and most appropriate option for the community and also considering that there are substantial differences between one province and another.
“We are going through the moment of weighted and gradual elections, perhaps the most difficult because they cannot speak to the stomach of the people, but must be dictated exclusively by objectively evident evaluations and considerations”, highlights the president of the regional council, “we started from assuming that we are not speaking from opposing barricades, on the one hand the bad guys who want to close schools and on the other those who, like me, have been opposed from the first moment. Both parties have expressed considerations starting from two different profiles: personally I think that Before we can close the schools, with a contagion rate of 1.34, we must tell the many working mothers where to take their children in the morning, without having foreseen the closing of jobs. To date, I do not believe that closing schools is a sustainable measure. Likewise, to say that today we close everything and then reopen at Christmas, I think it is a strategy with future, but we cannot ignore that there are commercial areas that, in economic terms, produce for entire territories and it is difficult today to say that we closed everything again without saying who pays, what pays, how much and when it pays. In L’Aquila we are certainly experiencing a critical situation that could soon also come to Pescara, but the economic impact of a new full closure will continue to be devastating, and we must also ensure that the individual commercial entrepreneur can really have the strength to reopen their store in Christmas. Rather, I would have welcomed the harsh selective ordinances that mayors have to strictly enforce, for example requiring citizens to stay home on Saturdays and Sundays, or at night after work is done, because this is the moment. true way to avoid meetings. And we are also waiting to know what the new government supplies will be for a possible red zone, we know that Governor Marsilio is working to secure new resources for Abruzzo that will allow us to face a situation that is explosive ”.
