The only privilege is the room with access to the football field. For the rest, Ruslan Malinovskyi, the Atalantine midfielder infected during his retirement with the Ukraine national team, at the Muratella Covid hotel in Cologno, receives the same services as other guests in isolation. But he could only be the star when the word got out. There are those who watch him from the window while he trains, and he doesn’t deny a selfie with the staff or an autographed shirt.

The Muratella was a test bed of the second wave. Instead, it had to welcome positive people or close contacts with positive ones at Covid, mostly from the territory more patients arrive from hospitals, 96 in all in a month of opening with an average of 30 and peaks of 52, out of 56 rooms. Self-sufficient people, is the condition of the Ats call, but in several cases in need of health care that requires a special staff. Indeed, the new expression of interest published by Ats to look for other structures speaks of Covid hotel plus, with a doctor present at least 8 hours and available 24 hours a day, at least one nurse present day and night plus a second nurse for 8 hours in the case of more than 50 orspiti, and a social welfare or health care worker for every 30 guests present 24 hours a day. Additional services that raise the fee (pays the health system) to the hotel from 80 to 120 euros per room. The priority for reporting patients will be given to hospital doctors, emergency room doctors, hospitals of other Ats, followed by family doctors.

“The covid plus is an evolution studied on the basis of needs seen in the field, we have forwarded observations and the study to Ats, day by day, from which we conclude that we also need a health staff”. Gianluca Marcucci manages the Bes Hotels, a chain of which La Muratella belongs. He has already applied for two other hotels, in Mozzo and Cremona. Immediately, for safety, it has hired health personnel, but now with the new Ats call it provides for it in a specific way and increasing the quota.

Marcucci will hardly forget the phone call from the doctor at the hotel on the evening of November 11: “An 83-year-old patient arrived in an ambulance with cognitive difficulties, he needed a different environment from the hotel as thought by the first announcement, with more assistance. We couldn’t take it. We know that he is in a facility with health care ». Recently, a guest was taken to the hospital for a suspected stroke. “People here are self-sufficient, but different people need therapeutic continuity, some with injections, some with blood glucose tests, not just temperature and saturation”. And everyone brings a story: “One lady has lost her husband, another her brother, the asymptomatic are afraid of getting sick. To relieve stress we have planned safe routes in the countryside around here ». There are those who speak only Arabic, “I moved an employee of mine here to understand it”, those who don’t eat pork, some vegetables, eggs, fish. There is a cultural and ethnic world. Many Muslims: the imam passed yesterday.
