It could be a case of Coronavirus returning from a vacation abroad that of the 18 year old tested positive. This is what the mayor of Pietrasanta Alberto Stefano Giovannetti reports. “There is still no evidence that it is a contagion coming back from abroad – underlines the mayor in a note -. The girl she had just returned from a vacation. It is one of the hypotheses. However, it is quite evident that a greater control filter is needed for those who travel during this period. At the moment all the hypotheses are open ».
“If the investigations confirm that the anti-contagion protocols have not been correctly applied – continues the mayor – we will take the necessary measures against the local. It is very important that everyone do their part in the fight against contagion so as not to frustrate the efforts that we have all been making for months now and that we will have to continue to do again ». Giovannetti explains that the 18-year-old “is fine. Investigation is underway to exclude outbreaks or other infections among relatives, friends or close acquaintances. At the moment, as reported by the ASL, none of her family members tested positive, and so half of the people subjected to the test with whom she had come into close contact “.
“The average age of the infected has dropped – concludes Giovannetti – Now young people are the most at risk who in turn endanger the health of parents and the elderly. More responsibility is needed and this is a message that must come first and foremost from parents and families when their children leave the house. They must be made responsible. The municipalities alone, with the sole forces of the local police, cannot be able to control, monitor and intervene throughout the territory ».
