A very hard attack: “During the emergency in Lombardy at the health level, everything that could have been wrong was wrong and asking for a candidacy to host the G20 Health 2021 now means having contempt for decency, it would be a shame”.
So Andrea Crisanti, professor of Microbiology at the University of Padua, in an interview with the newspaper ‘Il Messaggero’.
“Recognizing the merits of those who worked better would perhaps be a better choice – continues Crisanti – unless one intends to transform the meeting into a commemoration, at that point nothing to say. ‘goal of starting to think about the creation of a health model to be adopted in a context such as that of the pandemic and if it is done in Italy to recognize the merit I really don’t think Lombardy is the right choice, absolutely “.
Crisanti instead thinks that Lazio “which is one of the most populous in Italy and this is a factor in an epidemic, initially had a number of important cases just like many other territories, but it reacted very well, certainly better than others. The Region – explains the professor – was able to quickly set up a network of efficient laboratories for active surveillance, exploiting a territory that is indeed also rich in research centers. the regions that have been able to behave in the right way and better deal with the situation “. Therefore, if Italy today “is like this, with limited numbers compared to others, it is because it has replicated the model they applied in Veneto and Lazio”, concludes Crisanti.
