There is great anticipation for the Council of Ministers on Wednesday in which the government is called to launch new measures to curb the virus race: the third decree in two weeks after those of 23 and 30 December. Today a new record of infections since the beginning of the pandemic, and the number of deaths is also starting to worry, never so many since 30 April.

The hypotheses in the field multiply and check, as an alternative to the imposition of the super green pass at work, that of the obligation to vaccinate the subjects most at risk, all over 60.

Today Draghi, having returned to Rome, made the point with Commissioner Figliuolo and with the ministers Speranza, Bianchi and Brunetta in view of the CDM, which in all probability will be preceded by a political control room because the distances in the majorities remain all, in particular on the extension of the super green pass to the world of work.

SUPER GREEN PASS - The extension of the enhanced certificate to all public and private workers remains on the table. Forza Italia asked for it again today, but the resistances of the League and the doubts of M5S and Pd, which now pushes on the vaccination obligation, must be overcome.

One could opt for the super pass imposed only on public workers or workers who are in contact with the public.

OBLIGATION FOR THE FRAGILE - The League would not oppose this hypothesis, it appeared during the extraordinary Conference of Regions convened this afternoon.

"We have tried them all - the Ligurian governor Giovanni Toti wrote on Facebook - but at this point all that remains is the obligation to vaccinate all workers and the most fragile subjects who have not yet received the vaccine by choice (which obviously does not apply). for those who have valid medical reasons that prevent them). With my fellow presidents of the Region we made a request to the Government to intervene as soon as possible to deal with the peak of infections expected for the end of January ".

There are 1.2 million unvaccinated Italians in this age group, and they are the ones that most crowd hospitals and intensive care units. The data speak for themselves: 526 unvaccinated over 60 out of a million end up in intensive care against 33 vaccinated in the same age group out of a million.

SMART WORKING - Majority divided also on agile work, supported by the 5 Star Movement which would like it mandatory but strongly opposed by Minister Brunetta. "The rules - said Brunetta who today met Draghi at Palazzo Chigi - already allow it in case of need, but we cannot go back to the 2020 lockdown". In case of need, in essence, companies and administrations can resort to smart working, and it is not necessary to introduce new measures.

For Giuseppe Conte, on the other hand, “a preliminary condition for further restrictions to be taken into consideration is that the use of smart working is immediately introduced. It is unacceptable that Europe makes massive use of this measure, and we who were the leaders have abandoned it at this stage of the pandemic ".

SCHOOL - Finally, the school chapter, hot given the great rise of infections among children and the imminent return to the classroom after the holidays. Rejected De Luca's request to delay the return for 20-30 days, Minister Bianchi reiterated that the priority is to be in presence and in safety. The protocols to avoid dad will be reviewed, with an increase in the number of infections that triggers it, especially for the age groups most covered by the vaccine. The hypothesis is that there are four infections for students over the age of twelve, as requested by the Regions.
