Reservations at the start in Lombardy. The decision on Sputnik is awaited. Mattarella against the No Vax: “The few who want to impose their anti-scientific theories cannot prevail”
Woe to lower your guard against Covid. The pandemic in Italy is undergoing a recovery, albeit slightly. Thus the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, who has never lowered the guard, invites citizens to prepare: “The third dose can be vaccinated from the age of 60. Our invitation is therefore addressed to everyone, starting with health personnel, RSA, but in general to all people who are over 60 years old through which they have passed at least 6 months from the completion of the cycle. It is a fundamental step to protect ourselves even better. And we have no stock problems, the doses are there, we are able to ensure everyone the third dose ».

Rezza: «4 thousand cases in one day? It hadn’t happened for a long time “
Important words, especially after reading yesterday’s data, with the curves slightly increasing: 4,054 new positives in the last 24 hours (on Monday there were 2,535) and 48 victims (Monday 30). “Four thousand new cases in one day hadn’t happened for a long time – the worried comment of Gianni Rezza, the general director of Prevention – but we are in a better situation than other European countries“. Also the green pass effect is being felt: yesterday a new record number of swabs (639,745), almost triple on Monday (222,385). But fortunately the situation remains under control, even in schools things are going well: after 5 weeks of lessons, only 5,414 children out of 8 million were positive.

Costa: “Soon news for caregivers and truck drivers from the East”
Thus, starting today, in Lombardy, citizens over 60 and adults with high fragility will be able to book to receive the third dose, which can be administered – we remind you – only after at least 6 months have elapsed from the completion of the primary cycle. «Probably the third dose will be necessary for everyone – said yesterday the Undersecretary of M5S for Health, Pierpaolo Sileri – Within the year we will leave with the elderly and health personnel. Then from January 2022 it will be the turn of the rest of the population ». The other Undersecretary of Health, Andrea Costa, from Noi con Italia, also seems convinced the imminence of the third dose for everyone: «It is reasonable to think that already by the end of the year there could be an extension of the audience. The data tells us that protection drops after a certain time frame. It falls more rapidly in the elderly and more slowly in the young … ». But Costa adds another detail: «I am confident that in the next few days we will be able to recognize the rights of citizens who have been vaccinated in their own country with Sputnik. I think of the broad category of carers but also to road hauliers from the East ». And those who still cannot download the green pass should not worry: «The paper certificate of vaccination is valid – Costa remembers».
