Two Regions have exceeded the threshold of 10% of the beds occupied in intensive care. These are Friuli Venezia Giulia and Marche, which now if they exceed even the 15% threshold in the medical area will automatically end up in the yellow zone.

After weeks of stability, the percentage of intensive care places occupied by Covid patients returns to rise nationally, rising from 4 to 5%.

The rate is also rising in Piedmont, from 3 to 4%, in Liguria and Veneto from 4 to 5%. The other Regions are stable, among which Sicily stands out with 9%.

In Sardinia, the situation is largely under control, with 3% of the beds occupied both in intensive care and in the medical area.

On a national level, the occupancy of beds in hospital wards in the medical or non-critical area remained stable at 6%. But the percentage rises in 7 regions, even if none exceeds the defined alert threshold of 15%.

In particular, growth can be seen in Abruzzo, Liguria, Puglia, Tuscany (at 6%) as well as in Friuli (at 10%), the Autonomous Province of Bolzano (at 13%) and Veneto (at 4%). On the other hand, it falls in Basilicata (7%) and Valle d'Aosta (8%).

The president of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano Arno Kompatscher is worried: “The trend of the pandemic in Italy is not satisfactory, where the vaccination rate is low there are more hospitalizations. We are in the midst of the fourth wave and we have asked Rome to allow benefits for the vaccinated and the cured, as happens in some European countries ”. Kompatscher looks at the Austria model and clearly asks the government to lock down the vaccinated.
