Mentre scarseggiano le forniture di mascherine, che sono essenziali per medici, infermieri e personale sanitario, durante questa emergenza per il COVID-19, ne sono comparse alcune sulle bocche di sculture sparse nelle piazze di moltissime città.
Qui in Italia, solo pochi giorni fa, il presidente della Società Italiana Pediatria Alberto Villani, ha detto riferendosi agli strumenti di protezione sanitaria e medica definiti “presìdi”, come le mascherine: «La preghiera che viene fatta alla popolazione è di usare i presìdi quando realmente necessari: perché i presìdi vanno riservati ai medici e agli infermieri, e siete ben a conoscenza di tutte le difficoltà che ci sono nel reperimento».
Forse il mondo dell’arte cerca solo esorcizzare la paura, placare l’ansia e ricordare a tutti che bisogna rispettare le regole.
