The man is admitted to Pope John under control not in critical conditions.
Regional Councilor for Wefare Giulio Gallera, confirms her husband’s hospitalization for meningococcal infection C, at the Papa Giovanni XXIII Hospital in Bergamo by Marzia Colosio, the 48 year old from Predore who died ten days ago.
“The 54-year-old man had undergone precautionary antibiotic prophylaxis – explains Gallera – which, however, did not have the desired effect completely due to his previous fragile health conditions. Fortunately, the patient is now in a non-serious condition. The prophylaxis actions for the closest contacts have already been activated by the ATS of Bergamo “.
“In these hours, the Istituto Superiore di Sanita has confirmed that the first 4 cases of meningococcal C sepsis recorded in recent weeks in the Basso Sebino have the same genotype as the bacterium. This element confirms the choice to proceed with the vaccination offer extended to the population of the area. An offer that continues in the next few days in extraordinary clinics, high schools, companies and through local GPs “.
This was announced by the Lombardy Region Councilor for Welfare, Giulio Gallera, who also expressed regret for some “overly emotional and unjustifiable” choices made in recent days in the sports sector. “The decision to even cancel sporting events on the calendar – underlines Councilor Gallera – some of which are played outdoors, is not useful in any way and does not benefit this territory and its inhabitants. Precautionary and preventive actions have already been activated in a timely manner. I sincerely invite everyone to return to normal social life ».
