Covid and the “positive messages”, Burioni replies to Costa

Undersecretary of Health Andrea “Costa is right in saying that no one is able to predict what will happen in the autumn” on the Covid front in Italy, with coronavirus infections on the rise and the run of Omicron 5, “but for the same reason it is not clear on what basis the ‘positive and reassuring’ messages he claims are needed can be provided. He should explain it to us. ” These are the words of the virologist Roberto Burioni, who in a tweet comments on a statement by Costa on what awaits us in the coming months. Assuring that there is no restrictive measure on the government table at the moment, the undersecretary pointed out that “it is wrong to say that it will be a catastrophic autumn” and that “Italians need positive and reassuring messages”. This last passage has aroused Burioni’s objection.
