Coronavirus, "Sardinia safe island"

(ANSA) - CAGLIARI, FEBRUARY 26 - "Sardinia is a safe island. Health problems are under control also thanks to the actions put in place promptly by the regional Health Department". This is the message that the President of the Sardinian Councilor Michele Pais wanted to convey by opening the session dedicated to the spread of the coronavirus in Italy and the measures put in place in Sardinia. Pais said that "the only thing to avoid is that psychosis does more harm than the disease" and called for "greater awareness of the huge economic damage that the coronavirus, which has not yet recorded a single case on the island, could cause tourist season now imminent ". "It is necessary - he added - that a signal of tranquility and serenity starts from our land: Sardinia awaits tourists who, from all over the world, will choose our island for their holidays".
