Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte publicly thanked, via social networks, Ambrogio Iacono, a teacher from Ischia (Naples) affected by the coronavirus who continued to give lessons to his students from the Rizzoli Hospital, where he is currently hospitalized.
Iacono, 49 anni, professore di scienze e chimica all’ Istituto alberghiero “Telese” dell’ isola, era risultato positivo alla fine di marzo. In seguito le sue condizioni ne avevano consigliato il ricovero, ma ha continuato ad insegnare in didattica a distanza ai suoi alunni nonostante la malattia. Ritiene di “avere il dovere di testimoniare in prima persona gli effetti della pandemia sia dal punto di vista scientifico che da quello umano”.
The teacher's efforts have been rewarded by the application with which his students follow the lessons. "Many citizens are offering proof of great commitment - wrote today the Prime Minister Conte on his Twitter profile - among these is Prof. Ambrogio Iacono: struck by covid-19, he continues to give lessons remotely to his students from his hospital bed. Thank you Professor: your students will be proud of you".
