TRENTO. Mandatory green pass at work and rush to rapid antigen tests, with pharmacies now having long waiting lists, incompatible with the time required for the validity of the certifications (the negative result is no older than 48 hours).
After the announcement made two days ago by the Province, but without providing the details of the operation, now the APSS explains the times and ways to access the rapid tampons even in the centers of the Healthcare Company.
An enhancement of the service, although “politically” excluded until two days ago because it could discourage anti-covid vaccinations, which will make it easier to live with the obligation of green pass for those who have not yet immunized.
“From Monday afternoon, October 18, it will be possible to carry out quick antigenic swabs for a fee – explains Apss – also in some company offices provincial for health services.
Given the increase in the request for antigen tests aimed at obtaining the green covid-19 certification (green pass), Apss will support the system of pharmacies and private laboratories which in recent days have recorded a significant increase in requests for entry into force of the compulsory green pass in the workplace.
On the mandate of the Province – continues the press release – Apss is therefore preparing the organizational machine and recruiting staff (who will work off-duty) to increase the diagnostic offer of paid tampons.
Part of the tests will be intended for workers in essential services.
It starts on Monday at 4 pm in Trento at the headquarters of the tamponi drive in via Fersina (Palazzetto dello Sport).
Quick tampons can be booked starting this evening, Saturday 16 October, at 8 pm, at the Cup online (section book pad for a fee).
The cost of the service is borne by the user who must pay it through the PagoPA digital channel.
From Tuesday afternoon, tampons for a fee will also be carried out in Riva del Garda, at the Health Services Center.
The offer of paid tests in various points of the territory will be progressively expanded based on the availability of the personnel being recruited.
The results of the swabs will as always be available on TreC and FastTreC and will be simultaneously communicated to the ministry of health for the generation of the green covid-19 certification valid for 48 hours from collection.
However, adherence to the vaccination campaign always remains the priority from a public health perspective.
Vaccinating against covid-19 is essential to limit the spread of new variants of the virus and avoid the most serious forms of the disease “, concludes the Trentino health authority.
In this regard, today and tomorrow in the vaccination centers of Trentino there are time slots dedicated to covid vaccination without reservation.
In addition to the now traditional open days in southern Trento (Mattarello), extraordinary openings are also planned in Val di Fiemme and Fassa.
It will be possible to access the South Trento vaccination drive without reservation on Saturday 16 October and Sunday 17 from 9 to 13; while in Val di Fiemme and Fassa it will be possible to get vaccinated without an appointment on Saturday afternoon (from 13 to 16) at the San Giovanni di Fassa-Sèn Jan health district and on Sunday morning (from 9 to 12) at Palafiemme di Cavalese.
