April 21, 2020 "Today's bulletin continues to confirm the downward trend that is now consolidated, with a drop in the number of inpatients even in intensive care, but we cannot afford to let our guard down". The president of Veneto Luca Zaia said this during a press conference this morning.

Carpet pads
The swabs made in Veneto, to date, are 268,069. There are 11,059 people in solitary confinement, 600 fewer than yesterday. The positives are 16,404, 277 more than yesterday. There are 1,407 inpatients, 46 fewer than yesterday; 177 are ICU patients (-3); while the resigned are 2,175. 972 died in the hospital, for a total of 1,154 (33 in the health facilities since yesterday), also considering those who died outside the hospital, 16,404 infected from the beginning of the emergency (277 more than yesterday). 93 people were born in Veneto. These are the data communicated by the president of the Veneto Region, Luca Zaia, during the press conference for the usual point on the coronavirus emergency, at the headquarters of the regional civil protection, in Marghera. "For the plan we are thinking about next autumn - the Governor said - we want to increase the number of daily swabs". For Zaia, "the ICU data is a good sign." 

Downhill trend
"The bulletin confirms our mathematical model of descent. We must not let our guard down. The virus is there: we are not immune. The moment we opened on May 4th, it is right not to read this opening as the need to say it's over. It won't be the party of liberation, but the beginning of coexistence with the virus. If you look at the curves of the different countries, it's 70 days when the curve goes up, goes to the peak and then goes down. therefore decided to implement the cohabitation phase, to the point that on April 15 Korea went to the vote ". 

A Vo 'new study starts
A Vo' after the two samplings, the Veneto Region starts phase 3 with a new study in the same Euganean area. The president of Veneto Luca Zaia and the virologist Andrea Crisanti announced it. "The study wants to understand what happens when the virus is transmitted from one individual to another - explained Crisanti - but we also want to study the genetics of all the inhabitants of Vo '". For this "very expensive" project, he added, "national and international funding" has been received.

App and privacy
"The application is the will to borrow the experiences already made in China, Korea and Singapore. It is a digital tool that allows contacts to be traced nationally. Observations regarding privacy are correct. It is not an obligation By law, in Veneto we do not have the application, by choice, even if they offer several every day. The alternative is to go to the hospital door and wait for the patients to arrive. If it is a public health choice it must be made required. Technicians write that applications work if at least 60% of the population has installed them. "

Regional elections, the document is not shared
"The approved measure was not in the least shared with the Regions. I hope someone will bring this to the Head of State." So Luca Zaia comments on the government's decision not to open the possibility of a summer session for the regional ones, but to instead provide a window between September 15th and December 15th.

Fundamental volunteers
"Ours is a community that has one person out of 5 who volunteers, I think this is a great value for our community. They have been a fundamental link in facing this tragedy". 

We help families
"The school game is important, it is essential to start again with the school and I imagine there is a risk that this year it will not reopen". This was stated by the president of the Veneto region, Luca Zaia, guest of the transmission Storie Italiane broadcast on Rai1. "We must expect parents to be financially helped. At the time of reopening we will have children at home and parents unable to look after them, so it is essential that parental leave is incentivized, or financial intervention is made to recognize costs for babysitters." "I think it is essential to make a powerful intervention for families, which could be the beginning for a social intervention. We need a national vision of support for the family".

Almost obvious new wave in autumn
"At the moment we have a situation with a trend that has reduced intensive care, reduced hospitalizations, at the moment our direction is in a phase of evident decline, with sustainable numbers, on the other hand we must not lower the guards who don't read it is over. We will find it again in the fall. In case of a second wave we will have a clear idea of ​​what to do considering the experience of the last two months. We are preparing heavy artillery, we are preparing with the test system and the plan of public health. The issue that the virus recurs is almost obvious, a virus that will return, but compared to day zero we know that the cocktail of drugs works and can be used at home. "

At first there was no indication
"At the beginning the indications were missing. In two months we went from interstitial pneumonia treatment to thrombi in the lungs, from anti-viral to drug cocktail: but all the scientists who studied the Wuhan case why didn't they tell us these things? Either the Chinese have hidden the news or someone has not been informed. " This was underlined by the president of Veneto, Luca Zaia in an interview with Il Gazzettino.
