'We are doing our part by always putting our face on it' (ANSA)


"We work in the exclusive interest of citizens in order to better protect their health. Sometimes I make mistakes, for which I expect criticism and if it serves reprimands", but "only by citizens". So the emergency commissioner Domenico Arcuri returned to the controversy over the absence of masks at a low price. "We are doing our part - he added - and we are doing it by putting our face on it. So welcome the criticisms" of the citizens, "but only from them". 

"The price of surgical masks at 50 cents + VAT , or 61 cents, is and will remain that. Unfortunately for speculators and other similar categories this is and will be. And they will have to make a reason. The jungle we have lapped, the speculation that we observed is gone and will not return. " This was said by the Commissioner for Emergency, Domenico Arcuri.

" It is not the commissioner who has to supply the pharmacies or their distributors, nor has he ever committed to do it. Nor am I to supply Confcommercio, Conad Federdistribuzione and Coop. The commissioner has undertaken to integrate the supplies, where possible, that these categories are able to procure through their networks ". This was said by the Commissioner for Emergency, Domenico Arcuri.

In the next few weeks the 50 cents masks will also be found in tobacconists , said Commissioner for Emergency Domenico Arcuri announcing the signing "in the coming days with the association of tobacconists, which has 50 thousand stores in the country". "We have signed the first two non-exclusive agreements (with the large distribution and with the distribution of pharmacists, ed.) And we are confident of making others with equally massive distribution networks".

Hypothesis compulsory masks at school in September  - Mandatory mask in all Italian schools. It is one of the hypotheses on the table of experts who are working on the plan to allow us to return to the benches in September. In addition to social distancing in the classrooms - with separate desks of at least one and a half meters - the other hypothesis is that the mask is mandatory for all students over six years of age, teachers and all school staff.
