La tragedia di Palermo lascia un senso di profonda ingiustizia e sconcerto. Davanti alla perdita di una bambina di soli quattro anni, l'unica risposta umana e degna dovrebbe essere il rispetto per il dolore incommensurabile di una madre e di un padre. Invece, assistiamo ancora una volta al consueto e triste spettacolo del processo mediatico istantaneo. Prima ancora che la magistratura possa fare chiarezza sulla dinamica dei fatti o valutare la tempestività dei primi soccorsi — considerando che la piccola era già stata dimessa un primo momento dall'ospedale —, figure pubbliche come Bassetti tanto per nominarne uno, si ergono a giudici infallibili. Si emettono sentenze sui social, puntando il dito contro i genitori e cavalcando il dramma per rilanciare battaglie ideologiche o richieste di coercizione sanitaria che non trovano eguali nel resto d'Europa. Il paradosso è evidente: Garantismo a senso unico: Si procede con tempestività nei confronti della famiglia, senza sollevare la minima domanda o attendere verifiche sulla gestione clinica e diagnostica iniziale del caso. Spostamento della potestà genitoriale: Si crea un precedente pericoloso in cui la scelta di cura passa dalle mani delle famiglie a quelle delle narrazioni di Stato, ignorando la complessità di decisioni che ogni genitore prende in scienza e coscienza. Spettacolarizzazione del dolore: Un lutto devastante viene strumentalizzato per alimentare dinamiche di colpevolizzazione pubblica, anziché garantire silenzio, analisi rigorosa e reale sostegno a chi ha perso un figlio. Tutta la mia solidarietà va a questa famiglia, travolta non solo da una perdita irreparabile, ma anche dalla brutalità di chi usa il loro dramma per ergersi a tribunale morale e politico. La medicina e le istituzioni dovrebbero curare e proteggere, non condannare a mezzo stampa prima ancora di conoscere la verità. #Giustizia #Solidarietà #DirittiUmani
