Covid Italia, Pregliasco: “Autumn? Quiet with limited red areas”

What will autumn be like in Italy struggling with covid? “Quiet, perhaps with limited red areas”. Thus the virologist Fabrizio Pregliasco, lecturer at the State University of Milan, promises the coming season at Adnkronos Salute. “There should be the necessary attention, targeted as much as possible. Covid – remembers Pregliasco – what it taught us to do is to be very careful and manage things as quickly as possible”. “I believe that things are moving. It seems to me that there is good attention and I believe that in the short term we will have a greater ability to manage it”, he then explains about the tracing and sequencing of the virus in Italy. While by now, he says on the opinions regarding the role of scientists during the pandemic, “we virologists, and that’s okay with me, are the lightning rod and the outlet for all suffering”. “There is – adds the virologist with resignation -. At least one culprit has been identified” of the inconvenience linked to the restrictions. CoV-2, “it’s a political choice,” says the virologist. “It is always a problem of balance on aspects that – notes the expert heard by Adnkronos Salute – can be heavy compared to a lockdown that hurts”.
