The alarm of the Ministry of Health reported in a circular. We have used the masks too much and now we are “weaker”.
The circularhowever, does not speak of Covidbut of the “Normal” seasonal flu. The document was drawn up by Directorate-General for Health Prevention of the Ministry of Healthand is titled “Influenza Prevention and Control: Recommendations for the 2022-2023 Season“.
So there is a new “alert”, launched by those who recommend continuing to use the masks. Due to thesurge in infections in recent weeks. But let’s go with order and let’s try to understand how things standbecause in the face of certain statements many could arise doubts.
The alarm from the Ministry of Health for next winter
They are ANSA compare an excerpt of the explicit declarations contained in the circular sent by the health prevention department. Words leave no doubt.
“For the second consecutive year the Covid-19 pandemic and the consequent ones containment measures have ridotto drastically globally the circulation of influenza viruses“.
Le peoplein short, they got fewer diseases because they wore masks and sanitized their hands moreand also because they have been more in isolation.
Ma the lower exposure to viruses caused concrete damage. That is to say, “the immunity of the population may have decreased“. As stated in the above circular.
In the same, then, we continue to recommend mass vaccination, especially for the elderly, the frail and operators in the health sector. L’objective is to do achieve immunity to 95% of the population. Immunity that, due to the same infections of recent weeks, would seem very far away regardless.
Le forecaststhen, about what lies ahead are truly disturbing. The document also reads indications disclosed to the Regions.
“Continue to monitor e prepare for the next seasonal flu epidemic it’s at future flu pandemics: surveillance e continuous testrapid investigation of outbreaks, timely sequencing and data sharing are of paramount importance ”.
Future scenarios
“Surveillance and continuous testing” and future pandemics “are words that put the chills. Out of tune, it is appropriate to say, even the words of the former member of Cts Abrignani, which can be found through the interview given to Corriere della Sera.
“Gathering together thousands of spectators who scream, sing and dance next to each other is like inviting the virus to a banquet. ” And he adds: “Even those such as the Palio di Siena where many epidemiologists were expecting a significant increase in infections in these days are very high risk occasions.”
Basically, better not to do anything more so we don’t get sick? It’s a very dangerous conceptespecially if you promote with nonchalance.
Let’s imagine for a moment the scenario of next autumn: Covid and Influenza that “plague” everyone, with consequent overload in hospitalswith consequent delays in managing other diseases. With consequent further lockdowns? Because we know the escalation by now. A “horror refrain”, which obviously nobody wants to live anymore.
The most disconcerting thing is precisely the first part of the declaration contained in the document. Due to the continued use of the masks we have all become more fragile. We think about ours children, even small ones, who obediently kept the mask for many hours a day. At school, in the gardens. Without being able to “get dirty with the earth”, without being able to “get infected” for make their little body learn to defend itself from disease.
And let’s not forget that until a few months ago, affirm such concepts it meant being accused of conspiracy theorists. Flat earthers. Enemies of Health and the People. Now, it is the same Ministry of Health that, “candidly”, admits that perhaps something wrong has been done.
Until two years ago, before Covid became part of our lives, the virologists themselves claimed that the strongest population should circulate the viruss. In order to make screen to most people weak.
Now, weak, we have all become. Who will be our screen? The Vaccines, the Boosters, and then the vaccine updates and the Boosters again? Where did the recommendations on how strengthen the immune system in a natural way? But above all, why has the way of dealing with diseases changed with Covid? I’m questions we should all be asking. We can find the answers in science, of course, but also in common sense. Which, however was blown awayin the last two years, from terror.
