Eight ambulances stopped in the square, blocked stretchers, numerous patients waiting in the waiting room. Today it was the Brotzu emergency room in Cagliari , the main hospital in Sardinia, that went into pain.

By now, rescue operators are not wondering if the mechanism will jam, but when and where. Generally the bottle neck is formed at the Santissima Trinità.

Today the problem has moved to San Michele. According to the regional monitoring network, in the afternoon there are 24 yellow codes: 11 visiting and 12 to visit and another arriving from 118. A single red code. Added to these are as many as 26 patients who are not in critical condition, classified as green, but who make a mass.

And they put the operators under pressure: doctors, nurses and Oss. Those who struggle every day with a system that threatens to collapse.
