Covid Italia, De Luca: “With an increase in infections, closures in August”

“If this positive trend continues, we will not even reach October, we will have to make new closures as early as the end of August”. Vincenzo De Luca, governor of Campania, raises the alarm: the possible increase in infections, linked to the spread of the Delta variant, will require restrictive measures in a short time. “I communicate it – Facebook adds live – so that everyone is aware of the situation. It is better to tell the truth and tell the facts than to say the most comfortable and simplest things. A father of a family, when he has to protect his children, does not say things more comfortable, he says the right things to protect them. It is what I believe it is my duty to do towards the citizens of Campania “. Read also “If we want to open schools in the presence, as it is in our programs, we must complete at least 80% of the vaccination of children even under 18. We will decide the opening of the school year in relation to the level of vaccination that we will have achieved in relation to the students “, he continues.” I appeal to the children – he says – to use the month of July to get as many vaccinations as possible, we only use Pfizer and Moderna. Recalls can also be made in accelerated times, Pfizer at 21 days so before August, and in any case we are preparing to use at full capacity the last week of August and the beginning of September to vaccinate the entire student population. This is the only real possibility we have. to open all schools in the presence “. In Campania the ordinance is in force which provides for the obligation to wear a mask outdoors in the squares, in inhabited centers, on the seafront:” I emphasize the need absolute to wear the mask outdoors and I urge the police and municipal police to be less relaxed. We are not kidding, the ordinance is not a paper signed by me, it is a legal obligation “.” I therefore invite the police – De Luca reiterates – to proceed with the sanctions against those who do not wear a mask and also of those who keep it on their neck, which is the category of double imbeciles because they are the ones who take the trouble to wear the mask without taking the benefit of the protection. The mask must be kept on the mouth and nose, it is not a great sacrifice. You can take it off when you go to the beach, when you go to the restaurant, when you go to a public park and there is no crowding. The mask is mandatory when you are in the squares of the nightlife, when there are gatherings, when you are on the seafront on Saturday evening, when you walk in the crowded streets. There it is mandatory because a cough is enough to spread the contagion “. So, the ‘usual’ thrust to Minister Speranza and Commissioner Figliuolo:” I appeal to the Ministry of Health, the Government and the Commissioner at the covid to speak at least it is possible, because the level of confusion they have produced in recent weeks is staggering. I believe that if they are silent, they give us a great hand in carrying out the vaccination campaign. Among other things, the evaluations they make on vaccines change every 48 hours, it’s a disconcerting thing “.
