Is it right for timely information to citizens about health emergencies to be left to the goodwill of well-meaning but objectively incompetent individuals, rather than being managed by the @MinisteroSalute by experienced and adequately compensated people? (Original: E' giusto che l'informazione tempestiva dei cittadini su emergenze sanitarie sia lasciata alla buona volontà di individui volenterosi ma oggettivamente incompetenti e non sia invece gestita dal @MinisteroSalute da persone con esperienza e adeguatamente retribuite? https://t.co/stHVqDRWIR) #PublicHealth #EmergencyResponse #HealthCommunication #IT
