“Managing the Infectious disease Emergency of the Migrants”. This is the main topic of the workshop held at the Arnas “Garibaldi” in Catania. There were 70 delegates participating at the workshop from the nations competing in the World Health Organization. . The group initially attended the recovery and safety operations of the migrant through simulations that took place at the Harbour of Catania directly on the ship and then, in the afternoon, deepened the themes of the “Diagnosis on the quay” Project within the hall ” Dusmet ”of the Catania’s hospital.
The growing phenomenon of incoming migration events – states Giorgio Santonocito, while he was opening the meeting – led to health consequences, of course. Consequently, the timing of the diagnosis of infectious diseases is of fundamental importance. It’s so necessary to move from the moment of disembarkation, through the immediate intervention of medical and nursing staff on the quay of the harbour “.
On the same position there is also the statement of Dr. Sergio Pintaudi, who underlines the importance of teamwork.
