Centro Bignamini, the outbreak breaks out: at least ten positive positives are ascertained, with guests already transferred to the appropriate Covid facilities – the latest just yesterday when the news spread -. Healthcare workers who received the first dose of the vaccine would be negative. The virus, at the time, would not have visited the portion of the institution where people with disabilities are located, always part of the Center headed by the ‘Don Gnocchi’ Foundation. This is reported by the report of the Municipality of Falconara, an entity that immediately contacted the management, as did the trade unions, requesting collective coordination with the Asur, in order to better manage the health emergency at the inside the structure. The outbreak allegedly originated in the intensive rehabilitation department, which is located on the second floor of the Bignamini. Obviously, it was immediately closed and sanitized, with the patients relocated, as mentioned, to other health facilities. As a precaution, some clinics and the swimming pool service were also closed, in an attempt to limit the advance of the infection: after yesterday’s sanitation, they will reopen as of today. In the Falconara social and health structures, this is the second case of Covid cluster, after the one discovered at the beginning of January in the Gerundini hotel house, where now the situation is definitely returning to normal. On the other hand, the situation of Bignamini is worrying, even in these hours it is constantly monitored by the political and health authorities. The CGIL, CISL and UIL confederal trade unions of Falconara spoke on the situation of the Center yesterday afternoon and expressed great concern about what is happening. “We immediately asked for a meeting with the management – the representatives Patrizia Massaccesi, Alessandro Mancinelli and Sandro Bellagamba say -. We believe it is essential that there is coordination between the structure itself and Asur for the management of the emergency and we ask that the staff be guaranteed. to maintain the health care that remains operational in the facility. It will be important to guarantee organizational solutions that prevent the use of staff in multiple departments and to complete the vaccination program for users and employees as soon as possible. We are available to meet the competent bodies to facilitate the coordination of initiatives “.
