Car parked illegally in the historic center of Naples and the ambulance gets stuck, unable to take the patient to the hospital in time.
The complaint comes from the association 'Nessuno tocchi Ippocrate', which posted a photo on its Facebook page. “There was a death! This morning on Salita Pontecorvo in Naples – we read – because of these cars parked in an illegal manner this morning a woman died! The cars were moved by hand by rescuers.
The crew arrives late on target, CPR maneuvers are useless! Congratulations!!!!! Let this road homicide also be considered!”.
“Every day, every day in Naples the 118 ambulances are slowed down if not stopped by cars parked in an illegal manner but as far as I can remember a patient waiting for help had never died because of this. There had been a worsening of his condition but never a death. It is a very serious fact and I hope it is considered a road homicide”.
Manuel Ruggiero, of the Nessuno Tocchi Ippocrate association: “It is a very serious fact and I hope it is considered a road homicide”.
Manuel Ruggiero, a doctor, is the president of the association 'Nessuno tocchi Ippocrate' which every day, on its Facebook page, reports attacks on healthcare workers. “The rescuers moved the cars by hand and finally managed to get to the lady’s house,” he says. “The call had come this morning to 118 for a request for help due to illness, due to a woman losing consciousness.
How much time was lost because of the parked cars? I would say about twenty minutes. By the way, after the first ambulance got stuck, a second vehicle was sent but it suffered the same fate”.

“We will invite the family to report the incident – he concludes – 118 operators are often attacked because they arrive late. We usually leave 30 seconds after the request for help. The delay is almost always due to uncivilized people who do not move, who do not care and park wherever they want And who this time caused the death of a woman”.
