Delta variant, Rasi: “It affects more under 30, vaccinating young people”

The “Delta” or ‘Indian’ variant of Sars-CoV-2 “affects the youth and under 30s more, and it is also logical because they are among the least vaccinated. The numbers are coming out these days.” This was underlined by Guido Rasi, former EMA number one and consultant to the commissioner for the Covid emergency, during the presentation of his book ‘Generation V’ (published by Paese Edizioni), dedicated to health professionals. Rasi also remarked how, precisely because of this aggressiveness of the Delta variant, “it is very important to vaccinate even the 12-16 year old group”. “The cases of hospitalization of children under 30, due to the Delta variant, are low – specified Rasi – because it is a less vulnerable age group”.
