The content of the ministerial note with which, with regard to the home management of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, a "vigilant waiting" and the administration of NSAIDs and Paracetamol are envisaged, "is in contrast with the professional activity as well as delegated to the doctor in the terms indicated by science and professional ethics ".

Thus the Lazio TAR in a sentence with which it accepted an appeal from the Covid-19 Home Care Committee.

The Tar cancels the Circular in the part in which it provides for the "vigilant waiting" in the first days of the illness and sets out indications of non-use of drugs. 

The appeal is signed by the president and lawyer Erich Grimaldi and by the lawyer Valentina Piraino. Therefore, the Circular of the Ministry of Health updated to 26 April 2021 is canceled, in the part in which, in addition to providing for the "vigilant waiting" in the first days of the onset of the disease, it also sets out indications of not using all the drugs generally used by general practitioners for Covid patients. According to the TAR, "apart from the legal validity of these prescriptions, it is the essential duty of every healthcare professional to act according to knowledge and conscience, assuming responsibility for the outcome of the therapy prescribed as a consequence of the professionalism and the specialist qualification acquired. 'AIFA, as borrowed from the Ministry of Health, therefore contrastswith the required professionalism of the doctor and with his professional ethics, imposing, indeed preventing the use of therapies which the latter may consider suitable and effective in contrasting the COVID-19 disease as is the case for any therapeutic activity ".

The conclusion is that "the content of the ministerial note, imposing punctual and binding therapeutic choices on doctors, is in contrast with the professional activity as delegated to the doctor by science and professional ethics". "Finally, a fixed point in a battle that we have been carrying out for two years, is the end of the watchful wait - commented the lawyer Grimaldi - to demonstrate that the ministerial guidelines were in fact a tool to bind general practitioners to any responsibilities that derive from the therapeutic choice. The Government, by binding doctors, has effectively deprived citizens of early home care, paralyzing local health care, and led to the collapse of the hospital system,with the dramatic consequences that thousands of families unfortunately know very well "." Therapeutic choices have always been a duty and a right of doctors, yet those who have treated at home have been unjustly mistreated and accused several times of acting in bad faith - he added the spokesperson of CDC-19, Valentina Rigano - instead of listening and acknowledging the constant requests for collaboration that we have repeatedly proposed to the Ministry, to find a common solution to the emergency, those who made decisions ignored the skills and experience of thousands of doctors. This decision crystallizes once and for all what the role of the general practitioner is, that is to act and not leave Covid patients to wait for the disease to evolve ".Therapeutic choices have always been a duty and a right of doctors, yet those who have treated at home have been unfairly mistreated and accused several times of acting in bad faith - added CDC-19 spokesperson Valentina Rigano - instead of listening and acknowledging the constant requests for collaboration that we have repeatedly proposed to the Ministry, to find a common solution to the emergency, those who made decisions have ignored the skills and experience of thousands of doctors.
