Covid Italia, Rasi: “Recovery in autumn but vaccine works very well”

“We do not know what will happen in the autumn. With the gradual decline in immunity that protects us from contagion, there will certainly be a recovery. It is the ideal time to implement structural measures: controlled ventilation systems in schools and public buildings, for example “. Professor Guido Rasi, consultant to the extraordinary commissioner for the covid emergency, expresses himself in this way by responding to Fabio Fazio in connection with Che tempo che fa. The epidemic curve in Italy is down but “the numbers are staggering, we still have 14,000 hospitalized and 70% are unvaccinated. I’m afraid we have reached the hard core of people not only scared to death by the vaccine but also hard core of the ideological component. Covid is a disease whose history we do not know, while we know the history of the vaccine: it has some duration limit, but it works very well. We do not know if the disease will return as herpes or if it will become chronic. the only thing to do is to avoid the disease and with the vaccine we avoid it “, says Rasi.” The easing of the measures is progressive and projected in the next 40 days. We have a unique situation: we have 7 million infected in 2 months and 36 million of people vaccinated with the third dose, similar simultaneity allows for reasonable relaxation. Green pass must remain a risk mitigation factor, people who have Super green pass when in a community nities represent a lower risk of becoming infected and a lower risk of infecting them, not zero risk “, he again points out.
