EXTRACT FROM AN ARTICLE BY CORRIERE DELLA SERA ON THE BOOK OF SILERI AND CECCHI PAONE:

The 2020 of the Deputy Minister of Health Pierpaolo Sileri struggling with the pandemic was a year of sorrow, culminating in the request for the resignation of the secretary general. Anger that comes from afar: «When I had Covid, it made me suffer to be cut off», he tells the Corriere , «from the CTS they didn't send me a report, a report, nothing. Yet I could work, contribute. In the first few months, communication was difficult. I tried to insert an observer of mine and they dismissed her, apparently, even as a woman. The secretary of the ministry Giuseppe Ruocco , who was to be the trait d'union, was and is often absent from the meetings. Is it possible not to keep the Deputy Minister updated? I had to discover from the news the first case of two positive Chinese people in Italy. They forced me to read even a hundred pages in the office, forbidding me to make photocopies ».

The genesis of the clash is all between the lines of the book Covid Segreto, published by PaperFirst and written with Alessandro Cecchi Paone. Among other things, the origin of the "war of virologists" is revealed, with the scientific popularizer accusing that "the CTS was born as a Roman-centered and male chauvinist power center" and the deputy minister who adds: "Training and management of the CTS are all 'origin of the quarrel among infectious diseases, virologists, epidemiologists ”.

Sileri says that he tried to have a CTS «more streamlined and with on demand sub-tables by experts from different territories and specializations»: «I proposed Massimo Galli, I was told no; Maria Rita Gismondo and I was told no. Even before Codogno, I proposed Alberto Zangrillo because he had made the Ecmo network and was not involved. Towards the end of July, I saw the arguments on TV and I asked to extend it also to Andrea Crisanti and others. I said: so, if they have to discuss they do it at an institutional table. And it seemed essential to me to introduce clinicians, especially from the North where they had seen so many patients. As a surgeon I explained that if I have to operate someone I make a briefing with an oncologist, radiologist, anesthetist … and that if the patient assisted he would say: thank you, I will not have an operation. Someone was offended and thought I wanted to send him away. '
