If it is found “A positive school will be checked for all the people around and temporarily closed. Once the positives have been identified, the school can restart “. This is the scenario hypothesized by the Deputy Minister of Health, Pierpaolo Sileri, speaking to ‘Timeline’ on SkyTg24 about the reopening of schools and the precautions to be taken to avoid contagion.
It’s still: “In my opinion there must be a relief of responsibility for the school staff, there can be no responsibility for the individual”. With the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza “I’m on the same wave. I have somewhat different opinions as a doctor. As a doctor, I know the virus exists. Like so many other diseases. And that we have to live with it ”.
Sileri reiterates his common vision with Speranza though “Some things I would have done differently. For example, the use of tampons in the beginning. My battle is well known to have swabs given as early as March to those who had no symptoms ”. Probably, however, “The closure of the clubs was right, because what we have seen in some videos is terrifying, but I doubt it will lead to a decline in infections. In my opinion, the infections will continue to rise, but we must not worry, because it is the natural history of the epidemic. The important thing is not to clog hospitals and intensive care ”.
And then: “The list of countries with a buffer obligation on return will be continuously updated. I made a proposal to the Technical-Scientific Committee, a month and a half ago – reported – because the swab is taken not only upon arrival, but also later, after 4 or 5 days, because the infection could have occurred shortly before departure and the symptoms appear days after the encounter with the virus “.
Finally, “I would put containers in airports, with laboratories, to swab all those arriving from countries where the number of infections is growing, taking into account the trend and not the 30 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants” which is the standard used.
