«I am trying to make an election campaign with a smile, saying what I did, but also what I want to do. I leave the other to the others, the fake news, the no. I would like Calabria to be all a region of the SI. And I have more positive sensations every day. In all five provinces I see great participation, great enthusiasm. I am very confident not only to win but to be flooded by the affection and friendship of the Calabrians “. To say it was the resigning president of the Calabria Region and re -candidate Roberto Occhiuto, who participated in a charity dinner in Catanzaro last night. «I – he added – I’m talking about the things I did as it is right because I recover and therefore I have to do the final balance. Now I have also started saying what I want to do. I think I can say it with the credibility of those who have made other things in these years and those who know that there are many problems and for this reason they are re -nourished. It is not that I think that in four years we have transformed Calabria because nobody has the magic wand either ».
Tridico: “Exclusion of Lucano is not good news”
«Mimmo Lucano outside the lists, unfortunately, is not good news. We opposed the appeal by asking for the suspension as it had happened for the Municipality of Riace where it had been considered fallen, but the suspension was worth following an appeal. We trust that even in this case the suspension can be worth. In any case, we are absolutely respectful of what the judges decide ». So the candidate for the presidency of the Calabria Region Pasquale Tridico commented on the exclusion from the AVS lists in the north and south circumscriptions of the mayor of Riace Domenico «Mimmo Lucano due to the Severino law after the definitive sentence to 18 months for false in the Xenia trial. Lucano’s lawyers have already filed an appeal. “We need to remove politics from health and recreate that network of territorial medicine, community houses, hospitals in the internal areas that have not been built, of the principals that are not there and which, unfortunately, then cause the massive influx to large hospitals”.
This was said by the candidate for the presidency of the Calabria Region Pasquale Tridico, intervening yesterday evening at an outdoor dinner in the historic center of Catanzaro organized for charity. «I am visiting the hospitals of all our communities. In Reggio Calabria – he added – there is a working hospital whose emergency room is very crowded with people who pour there from the internal areas. These famous internal areas that if we do not put them on their heads, which exist and which are three quarters of Calabria, we have lost sight of the region. Why was the emergency room crowded? Because the patient does not take charge in the internal area, with territorial medicine, with community hospitals. From here you have to start. And then the recruitment. The Cuban experience, although noble in intention, has proven to be a failure. Today we see that 30% of doctors have gone away. We must put incentives for doctors on the thick of the accommodation. Here, if we manage to put 6-7,000 euros per capita, we can make a call to recruit the Calabrian doctors who are around Italy and let’s say, come that calming the price of your houses can be lived in Calabria and work in hospitals in Calabria “.
