Naples. The heavy rain that hit Naples last night caused the flooding of some areas designated for the Radiotherapy department at the Ospedale del Mare, in the Ponticelli neighborhood. The flooding was caused primarily by the sewer system's inability to drain the enormous amount of water that fell to the ground in just a few minutes. "Water bombs are now a reality we will have to deal with more and more frequently, and the Radiotherapy departments, which for obvious reasons are located below street level, are the most exposed," explains Ciro Verdoliva, General Director of the ASL NAPOLI 1 Centro. "Since the early hours of dawn," Verdoliva continues, "the team of technicians from the ASL Napoli 1 Centro has been working to restore the machines to working order. Test runs have already been completed, and service will be available again by tomorrow morning." The General Management has requested and urged the Health Department to reschedule the scheduled treatments scheduled for today tomorrow, thus ensuring the health of all patients in the facility's care. The Technical Office assures that it will investigate any technical solutions to prevent such disruptions from occurring in the future.
