22 October 2020A contingent of two thousand operators to enhance the tracking activities.
This was announced by the Minister for Regional Affairs Francesco Boccia during the meeting with the regions.
"With a civil protection order - said the minister - we are creating a contingent to strengthen the health networks within the local health authorities and strengthen tracking operations".
The model is the same that in March brought volunteer doctors and nurses to the most troubled hospitals, and social health workers to prisons and RSAs.
"2,000 operators - explains Minister Boccia - will be identified with a civil protection call: 1,500 will be destined to carry out swabs, tests and tracing while another 500 will work on the request for information and on the procedures to follow".
The goal, Boccia explained during the meeting, is to create a contingent of people "who do not come from public or private hospitals, because we cannot ask anyone to deprive themselves of their resources at this time".
So we turn to "freelancers or those who do not have a fixed job, to self-employed people who have characteristics that we identify together with the Regions and will be able to work until the end of the state of health emergency".
The operators will be available to the individual local health authorities and applications will be made directly for the region of residence.
