Starting today the obligation of green pass for hairdressers, barbers and beauticians. In fact, the obligation - foreseen by the decree law of last 7 January - is to be in possession of the green certification to access what are defined as "personal services". The measure also applies to interviews with prison inmates. From 1 February public offices, postal, banking and financial services, commercial activities will be involved.
THE DPCM - Expected shortly - probably already today - the decree that identifies these latter activities: among the novelties there would also be the pass free entry to the post office for the withdrawal of the pension, while for the other postal services the certification (basic or enhanced). In general, access will be free in grocery stores, pharmacies, opticians and for the purchase of wood or pellets for heating. The same for outdoor activities such as gas stations, markets, newsstands. The pass will instead be used to buy cigarettes from the tobacconist.
THE COUNT OF CASES - In the meantime, we are proceeding towards the modification of the color system that could make half of the Regions end up in orange soon under the pressure of the infections. The hypothesis - which emerged yesterday at a technical table attended by experts from the Ministry of Health and the Regions - is to consider Covid cases only hospitalized patients who have developed the disease, without including asymptomatic patients in hospital for other diseases. .
Braking, however, on the request to reduce quarantines to 5 days for symptomatic patients.
The governors have been asking for this for days. "The color system doesn't seem to make much sense anymore", explains the president of Tuscany, Eugenio Giani. "I think - echoes the president of Emilia Romagna, Stefano Bonaccini - that it should be eliminated: currently, for example, in the yellow zone everything is the same as white". "The colors are of little use and the system must be abolished, on this we governors are almost all in agreement", said Donato Toma, president of Molise.
Yesterday the first meeting of the working table dedicated to the topic which was attended, among others, by the general director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Giovanni Rezza, and the president of the Higher Health Council and coordinator of the Cts, Franco Locatelli, together with representatives of the Regions. In the coming days there will be other comparisons to try to arrive at a shared position.
"There is - observes the Undersecretary for Health, Andrea Costa - an audience of 90% of vaccinated people. Faced with this, the generalized color system no longer makes sense. The only criterion that must remain is that of the red zone".
