(by Francesco Matera) There are recent news from the world of national information according to which a health protocol has been prepared to be followed for the care of people infected with Covid-19, at their homes. Some perplexity arises spontaneously if you think of so many ordinary people who have difficulty in interpreting the provisions of a health protocol or if you think of people who still live alone and may not even be able to find paracetamol.
However, the news is somewhat comforting because the National Health Bodies give indications on the medical health procedures to be followed at home to cure the disease. And this is a sign that they know what there is to do, at least hopefully.
This need, namely that of establishing a single and, we hope, effective protocol for treating people in their own homes was certainly motivated by the enormous flow of patients who came to the national hospitals that in recent weeks have ended up clogging up the hospital. health system itself.
However, the fault is not to be attributed to the poor people who, in the presence of fever or cough, go to the emergency room or at the Covid first reception points. The blame is perhaps attributable to most of the media which are literally terrorizing all Italians.
The terror is never justified or justifiable and if on the one hand the reason for this insane media campaign was perhaps intended to stem the infection by keeping the entire population at home, on the other hand it created an undesirable and probably unpredictable effect, in relation to which millions of frightened people rushed to the hospital in the presence of symptoms that in previous years we would have treated with an aspirin.
Of course, a well-known political figure of the past would have said: "Maligning becomes a sin but often one guesses " and so it comes to malign, thinking that the Does the global media information system want to keep the planetary population in tension so that there is a rush for the vaccine once the big pharmaceutical companies have it ready? We hope that there are no secondary purposes like this behind all this media terror. But things don't add up. On the one hand we are witnessing a constant inoculation of doses of terror on all TV channels but on the other we learn that the national intensive care seems to be solicited up to 40% of its capacity. So, are we on the alert or are we not on the alert?
In any case and unfortunately, assuming the data provided to us is valid, we have to deal with numerous hundreds of deaths from covid and this, in spite of ourselves, and taking into account the data coming from other European countries, it should be attributed to the low level of quality of national healthcare given that in Italy there is the third highest number of deaths in the world. So we are not able to heal as they do in other states? This is what the data say.
But after this rapid examination of the information movements in Italy and its catastrophic effects, all the Italians who are told day after day not to go to the hospital to be treated but to stay at home and respect a certain health protocol, begin to have not a few doubts.
In fact, the TV entertainment programs, the news and social networks, do nothing but talk about the miraculous covid healings of public figures belonging to the sphere of cinema, politics, television, entertainment and sports who return home happy and healed. thanking the doctors and nurses of the hospitals where they were warmly treated.
We are not discovering hot water since to confirm this news, just scroll through the news pages of each newspaper to understand which presenters we are talking about, which actors and so on.
Then one wonders: on the one hand, millions of Italians are invited to take care of themselves at home (without being sure of recovery). On the other, we see dozens and dozens of VIPs who return home after being treated in the hospital.
But then: do you have to go to the hospital or not to go? Or can only VIPs go there?
Are we always the same? Two weights and two measures?
