The Indian variant of Coronavirus appears isolated, and above all of foreign origin and subjected to immediate tracing, in a man and his daughter residing in Villaverla, near Bassano del Grappa (Vicenza), the first case found in Veneto. The confirmation came from Antonia Ricci director of the Zooprophylactic Institute of the Venezie, which is carrying out the sequencing of the virus strains.
The two subjects immediately entered quarantine upon their arrival "and did not transmit - Ricci specified - the infection to the family. Perhaps one of their relatives (the mother, ed) is positive, but because he is cohabiting", and is still subjected to investigations.
In Veneto today there are 848 new infections and 36 deaths in the last 24 hours, for a total of 409,213 cases and 11,281 victims since the beginning of the pandemic. Clinical data increased, with 1,546 (+6) hospitalized with a diagnosis of Covid, of which 1,328 (+3) in non-critical wards and 218 (+3) in intensive care. 472,418 vaccination cycles were completed, equal to 9.7% of the population, for a total of 1,512,159 doses, equal to 91.4% of those provided, 1,039,741 first doses with coverage of 21.3% of the population .
On the trend of the virus today the reflections of the Report investigation last night prevailed, which overshadowed an 'irregular' treatment of the data on positives and the stop of a study by Andrea Crisanti on rapid tests at the basis of the increase in mortality in the second wave at the end of the year.
"I haven't seen it yet" was the comment of the president Luca Zaia. "I think - he added - that there are personal responsibilities, they are all activities that do not belong to me, so it is right to hear the interlocutors. This shows that this administration is transparent. Report is a theory, someone has another, there we will compare ".
At the center of the criticism is the misdemeanor of the regional director Luciano Flor on Crisanti, who would have been 'hidden'. "Flor will meet the councilor, I have to do something else", Zaia cut short. On the matter, the minority councilors interrupted and delayed the start of the work of the Regional Council, requesting the presence of Zaia in the classroom. "The official place to say things is here, not the Marghera press point, we believe it is essential that we clarify the responsibilities before addressing the other issues", they said.
