Ecdc: Europe almost all red. Italy: 3 regions at maximum risk
The regions with the highest incidence see this week in first place Autonomous Province of Bolzano with 645.7 infections per 100 thousand inhabitants. Following it at a distance, there are 3 other regions that exceed 300, that is, well beyond the threshold level set at 50 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants: Friuli Venezia Giulia with 336.3 almost, Veneto with 317.1 e Valle d’Aosta with 309.1.
In general, the situation worsens a little throughout Italy. L’South Tyrol in the yellow zone from Monday, reaching the Friuli Venezia Giulia: this is what emerges from the indicators under examination in the control room. The Autonomous Province of Bolzano has now passed all three yellow parameters: ordinary hospitalizations are at 19.8% against the limit of 15% and intensive care at 17.5% against the limit of 10%. Friuli Venezia Giulia itself remains well above the threshold, with intensive care at 14.9% and hospitalizations at 23%. No other Region still has the three values above the limits at the same time, but the hospitalizations of some are worrying (the incidence is everywhere well above 50, except in Basilicata, Molise, Puglia and Sardinia). In Veneto and Marche the intensives are already above the threshold: in Veneto they are at 10.5%, but ordinary hospitalizations are still far from 15%, at 8.9%, while in Marche the employment of resuscitation is at 12%, with ordinary hospitalizations at 9.5 %. High numbers in Lombardy, with hospitalizations at 13.4% and intensive at 7.3%, while the Lazio it has 10.8% of hospitalizations and 7.8% intensive. Boom of ordinary hospitalizations in Val d’Aosta, well above the threshold at 28.3%, balanced however by an occupational resuscitation firm at 3%.
