The expert, chatting with the hosts Jean Paul Bellotto, Massimo Giannini and Oscar Giannino, added: “The data tells us that, once a block has been reached, which exceeds the maximum incubation time of the virus, it must give us evidence of results. We hope that all of this will be there”. So he went on to say that probably the real numbers of the pandemic – to be exact, those relating to total infections – are higher than those currently registered: “We know that the cases notified, as always in all epidemics, are underestimated: in the Bergamo area, in the Brescia area, in Milan, there is an objective perception that there are more cases …”.
In the rest of his speech, Pregliasco still tries to instill optimism and confidence: “However, I believe that this slowdown in the speed of the numbers of new cases is the sign of the positive action of the measures of social distancing, and this must strengthen us in the desire to continue, because the results, we knew it, they will arrive in the next weekend and in the first days of next week. We must not give up “.
Hence, the expert calls for greater concertation on a continental and global level to address the coronavirus nightmare: “At the level of scientific research there is an important exchange of knowledge at an international level, we all have access to large masses of scientific data. On one aspect of strategic choices, for example at European level, something is missing that would be useful because this coronavirus does not see the boundaries. A would be crucialcoordinated action “.
Finally, Pregliasco closes with a “neutral” opinion on how policy Italian managed everything:“As far as we are concerned, everything is being done, it will be difficult to say if we could have done better. We were overwhelmed by a wave. Surely it would have been better to have anticipated any closing action, but the politicians in these situations are on the grill , and wrong whatever their choice … “.
