CAGLIARI – From white to orange to red, then again orange and finally yellow. From March, in just over ten weeks, the Sardegna it reflects the parable of Covid-19 and an example of what can happen when free all and virtuous behavior alternate. The data is now from the white zone: 66 six new cases on average per day in the last week, less than half the previous week. And the region in the yellow zone from May 17th.
But the governor Christian Solinas confirms the line of caution: until May 28, those who disembark in ports and airports must have a double vaccination certificate.
Alternatively he must undergo a buffer (molecular or antigenic) 48 hours before leaving and present the certificate of negativity.
Or it can do free quick swab on arrival, at the port or at the airport.
Last alternative: go, within 48 hours of entry in the regional territory, in an authorized structure and undergo the molecular buffer, at your own expense, and make one unsanitary five days later.
Otherwise you have to stay in isolation for ten days.
Before leaving, in any case, you have to register on the Sardegna Sicura app (Download here for iOS and here for Android).
The Covid-19 situation in Italy and in the world
A test in view of the summer holidays
Almost certainly the memory of what happened the summer of last year induces for the moment not to widen the mesh of the controls. 3/4 thousand people arrive in Sardinia every day; a crucial test in 10 days on the bridge between the end of May and June 2. In hotels and agritourisms there is an increase in bookings and waiting for a first (and feared) invasion of second home owners for the reopening at the beginning of the season and the arrival of some group of French or Germans who traditionally choose Sardinia in June or September . If they arrive, as estimated, 8/10 thousand people a day, will be the occasion for a first pre-summer test of the control system, entrusted to the public health structures by the agents of the regional forestry corps.
The progress of the vaccination campaign
Prudence made mandatory by the unsatisfactory performance of the vaccination campaign. Sardinia always in last place, does not reach 80 per cent of doses of the doses received and fails to approach the 17 thousand daily doses per day as requested already for April by General Figliuolo. In any case, tens of thousands of doses are expected to arrive in a few days. And controversy lasts between Ares-Ats (Central Agency of the Region) and general practitioners. They do not make a significant contribution – the agency accuse -, so far doctors have withdrawn only a thousand doses, on average not even one dose each. From the union they reply: The organization of Ares is not working. Nobody gave us the vaccine lists. In regional warehouses the doses of vaccines awaiting inoculation are approaching 200,000 (out of over 800,000 arriving from Rome). At the weekend they should drop for one open day dedicated to citizens under 60 to dispose of AstraZeneca’s stocks. We must accelerate, not only under the pressure of General Figliuolo: an alarm is looming. At the Sarroch port – terminal of the large oil refinery in the Gulf of Cagliari – a ship arrived but was unable to dock and offshore in isolation. On board among the sailors about ten positives with Indian variant.
