THE PAIN OF THE MAYOR OF MACERATA CAMPANIA
“This is very bad news – comments the mayor of Macerata Campania, Stefano Antonio Cioffi – Marshal Nero had been with us for many years, he was part of the community. I heard from him before he was taken to Cotugno, when he was still hospitalized in the Covid ward of Melorio in Santa Maria Capua Vetere; he sent me a photo with the breathing helmet, then the situation got worse and they took him to intensive care at Cotugno. From that moment on, I texted his daughter, who told me he was getting better, then he had a crisis and died. This Covid doesn't want to go away, and it has not only affected the Carabinieri, but also many fellow citizens; there are at least ten of them in hospital. And this morning outside a doctor's office there were many people waiting. People must be careful, I will adopt other measures" concludes Cioffi. There was also a lot of disappointment at the Provincial Command of the Arma, in Caserta. "He was a great worker - says a colleague - and everyone, both us co-workers and the citizens, loved and respected him".
