March 21, 2020 "The situation is serious: in the coming days it will be dramatic". The Piedmont Medical Association wrote this in a letter to the government. "Please take urgent action to support the region to allow us to tackle the epidemic of Covid-19, which continues to spread with exponential values ​​in our cities."

After the alarm from Governor Cirio, the Order of doctors asked the government "to put ourselves in a position to do our job. We are at the end of the day. Resuscitation and ward beds are becoming scarce: some colleagues are desperate".

The request to the government of the Piedmont doctors' order is to supply health workers "as soon as possible with everything necessary to cure the population without risking their lives". "Health workers are not equipped with adequate protective devices and treat patients at risk of their own health - reads the letter to Prime Minister Conte -. There are no fans, CPAP helmets, drugs. We do not have enough doctors, both for the explosion of cases hospitalized both for the quarantine of many of us, who became infected working. "
