Covid: Italy in color, a new picture among the controversies

Harsh controversy between the Regions and the Government, criticisms from various commercial categories. Italy in color, in order to try to put a further brake on the new infections from Covid 19, continues to be at the center of the debate, which yesterday - as reported by the Agi - also reached the levels of a real clash between the Lombardy Region and the central government. Reason for contending the Rt data, according to Rome incorrect communications from Milan, according to Milan badly loaded by Rome. And so the governor said he was indignant at the false accusations received, while his deputy, Letizia Moratti, sank the blow with a direct accusation: "Minister Speranza wanted us to take the blame". In any case, Lombardy is in the orange band since this morning, even if the exit from the red zone was not enough for the regional administration, which goes ahead with the appeal presented to the Lazio Regional Administrative Court, which continues to ask for clarity on all the story. A hand in this sense also comes from the opposite political shore, and in particular from the Pd Mayor of Bergamo, Giorgio Gori: "If indeed in Lombardy since 12 October the healed have been wrongly counted among the positives, thus raising the Rt and causing more restrictions than necessary - he said - I believe that the penalized categories could initiate a class action for damages ". In Rome, the ministerial line does not change, and a clarification has come from the Higher Institute of Health: "The algorithm used to calculate the RT in monitoring the Covid-19 epidemic is correct, it has never changed since April and has the same for all the Regions that have used it so far without any problem ". Another protest comes from Sardinia, which has always left the yellow band this morning to enter the orange zone. "A paradoxical choice" according to the governor of the island, Christian Solinas. "While we are inaugurating new beds in intensive care, a good thirty, and another fourteen are already ready in Cagliari, in the Covid del Binaghi facility - underlines the president - the Ministry decides the passage of Sardinia in the orange zone due to the overcoming of the percentage of admissions. We believe that this calculation is wrong and since yesterday we have expressed to the same minister all our perplexities and absolute opposition to a decision of this type. Behind those colors there are people, economic and productive activities ". "Today all the indicators make it possible to keep Sardinia in the yellow zone, allowing our economic and production system, already severely tested by the persistence of the pandemic, to continue its work. We will protect Sardinia's reasons in every location". Between controversies and clashes between appeals presented and appeals announced, from today Italy in color has a new framework, but still no region in the white zone. THE NEW FRAMEWORK In the light of when decided by the control room with the data updated to last Friday, in the red zone there are a region and an autonomous province; in orange fourteen regions; in yellow four regions and an autonomous province; none in the white zone.
