Hope in the information in the Senate: ‘All schools will reopen in September’

“Vaccine, the first doses within the year”, announces Health Minister Roberto Speranza in the report to the Senate. “In the last few hours the contract between the European Commission and Astrazeneca has been finalized, that contract starts exactly from the agreement made by Italy, Germany, France and the Netherlands with this company. We are talking about a vaccine candidate, so there is a need for all the prudence of the case, but in this contract it is written that the first doses if the vaccine were to be confirmed as safe, will already be available by the end of 2020 “. The Minister of Health Roberto Speranza specified this in the information to the Senate on the implementation of anti-Covid measures.

“Italy is the protagonist in this vaccine, because the viral vector is produced at the Irbm of Pomezia and because the filling will take place with the Catalent of Anagni”, he added before thanking “the men and women of the national service. The lockdown in our country it worked and the behavior of the Italians, as well as the decisions of the government, managed to bend the curve and still give us a significant advantage over the vast majority of European countries “. In the speech he also spoke of the young people: “I have held out my hand to our children several times. Far be it from us any form of demonization, but we must ask them to lend us a hand. They continue to be a means of spreading the virus, parents and grandparents would pay a much more significant price. ” Also because if on the one hand there is a very strong lowering of the age of the infected, now the average is around 29 years compared to 61 this winter, “the government’s horizon is the reopening of all schools in September, the restart safety is our main objective and we will not leave the principals alone: ​​there will be a significant presence and 11 million masks a day “.

And speaking of school and masks, the minister added that “they are compulsory, you go to school with masks. But we divide the dynamic moments, in which there are concrete risks of closer contacts between students, and static moments, in which the student is stationary, has a distance of at least one meter from the others, at that moment it can be lowered. This measure can be revised in relation to the epidemiological curve, but the health authorities will evaluate “.

Compared to the previous information, he added, “the European epidemiological picture has significantly deteriorated, with a gradual increase in the number of infections. I will propose reciprocity in the checks to the other countries”.

Basically, in the next Dpcm we will confirm the general system “of the last Dpcm which is due to expire on September 7, said the owner of Health. The three rules are confirmed: correct use of masks, spacing of at least one meter and respect basic hygiene rules starting from hand washing. These are three real pillars on which the whole scientific and international community agrees “. “It is not a matter of political contention, three essential rules that must accompany us in this phase of coexistence with the virus”, said Speranza. Furthermore, he added regarding the reunification of binational couples, “we have probably found a solution and my hope is that within this Dpcm a positive response can arrive to this legitimate request that also comes from many couples who live the price of a division from a lot of time”.
