Vaccine on vacation, Son: “It won’t be done, we’ll have to go back”

Holidays and vaccines: how can we organize ourselves so as not to sacrifice either one or the other? According to the emergency commissioner, Francesco Paolo Figliuolo, this it is a “non-problem”. «It is good that those who go on vacation regulate their holidays according to the vaccination appointment. For Astrazeneca it can be done with an interval between 4 and 12 weeks between the first and second dose, with mRna vaccines it can be done at 42 days ».

Figliuolo invites to “keep the bar straight” in the next two or three weeks, and to try to to secure all those over 60 and the “frail”. “There has been a steep drop in hospitalizations and deaths, giving priority to vulnerable classes (the positive rate on tampons dropped to 1.7%, the lowest since January, when rapid tests were added, Ed. ). We must continue to vaccinate the over 60 and the frail. I ask all regional presidents to go ahead with the reminders, it’s easy to get caught up in propaganda, and say “I open this category or another”, but if we do not secure the over 60 who have a 95% chance of ending up in hospital, or worse still in intensive care, or worse still to die, we will not get out “.

Then, Figliuolo anticipates, “this summer we can expect to have massive inoculations in economic categories such as large retailers or hotels, the cashiers who have worked since the beginning of the pandemic and who for me are as heroic as doctors ».

The general, explaining that on Monday, in the control room and in the Council of Ministers important decisions were taken to “go towards the reopening in an orderly and safe manner”, confirmed that he was “open to any proposal that the Regions would like to make me; obviously everything there is a limit which is pragmatism, if we do fancy flights and inventions, I’m not there ».

Meanwhile, Figliuolo adds, there are about 3 million vaccines which will be delivered between 20 and 24 May to the Regions and Autonomous Provinces. The doses will cover all vaccine lines: Pfizer, Vaxzevria, Moderna and Jannsen.
