“The PNRR alone is not enough, we need a great cultural revolution. We are a country that has a long life expectancy, but if we evaluate the healthy life span we go very low in the rankings. This is because we do not implement prevention, we all know what it means no smoking, no alcohol, physical and intellectual exercise, all this can completely change a person’s life. Those who use all the ways to have a good quality of life live longer “. Thus Silvio Garattini, founder and president of the Mario Negri Institute of Pharmacological Research, on the sidelines of the opening session of the national conference of the Italian Association of Clinical Engineers (Aiic).
Culture is the key word for Garattini who continues: “We must start from school which must be the main source of training for children to learn this new way of leading their lives. There is also a need for a Higher School of Health to train managers. Finally, an important role is that of technology because we need to collect data to see how the situation is going. Today we have systems that are very fragmented, we need the National Health Service to have a single digitized system with a common vocabulary to ensure that the billions of information that are available every day are not dispersed but used in the common interest ” .
