Appeals and complaints. There is a war within the medical association of the province of Cagliari. The clash takes place over the budgets of recent years and the methods of approval. On the one hand there are the representatives of the institution, who demand transparency and correctness of the operations. On the other, a group of a few dozen doctors - around eighty, it seems - who decided to form a protest branch that has its roots in the era of the pandemic. It all began then, when a group of them had been denied the right to vote at a meeting of the organization because they did not have an enhanced green pass. That, for those who had removed, which only owned those who had received all the expected vaccine doses. The rebel doctors had refused them, because no vax. Or they had not agreed to show the document, if they had it, on the day of the vote on the organisation's accounts. Who finds himself forced to deal with long Covid and the after-effects of an illness that has left open, and apparently incurable, wounds in the body of an entire category: that of those who fought the virus.

The appeal

The matter emerges from an interlocutory document filed before the TAR of Sardinia. The administrative judges were called to rule on the appeal presented by 18 island doctors, also supported by an association, for the annulment of the "approval procedure of the 2021 final report of the Medical Association, of the resolution adopted, of the minutes of the meeting" but also "of the resolution on the 2023 budget estimate approved during the meeting of 14 December 2022". Therefore, all the accounting documents of the body that brings together the overalls, adopted since the virus began to retreat, have been challenged. For many, that period is just a bad memory. For the appellants, no. So much so that at the end of 2023 they are still continuing their battle.

The Green pass

The reasons for the appeal are various. At the meeting of 26 April 2022 "the documents underlying the report were not made available to the participants". Furthermore, they claim, "not all the members of the meeting were called and the registration of the participants was not carried out". The vote was taken by show of hands. But, above all, "there was a violation of the prerogatives of the right to vote held by the members of the assembly who were summoned, but did not have the enhanced Green pass, who were not allowed access to the room". There were 14. And the act was approved with 73 votes in favor and 70 against. According to the applicants, at that stage the "green card" was no longer mandatory.

The institution's response

Those who represent the order have a different opinion: «We have always acted in full compliance with the rules», assures president Emilio Montaldo. He prefers not to say anything else. Because in addition to the administrative appeal there is also a forgery complaint pending, which the TAR is waiting to acquire in order to understand its relevance and arrive at the sentence. The organisation's lawyer, Gianmarco Tavolacci, has already filed his defence: the Green pass, he claims, was mandatory for participating in conferences and assemblies. And it rejects all the arguments of the appeal. Supported, however, by my colleague Isabella Loiodice: the professional's name appears in a list of supporters of the register of deaths due to adverse reactions to the vaccine.
