Covid, Crisanti: “Coexistence with the virus will be long”

“I foresee a fairly long coexistence with the virus”. Word of Andrea Crisanti, director of the Department of Microbiology of the University of Padua, to ‘Newsroom Italia’ on RaiNews24. “Let’s consider – he remembers – that it took 40 years to eliminate a virus like that of smallpox and that of polio after 70 years maybe we are beginning to hope to be able to eliminate it completely. So it takes a long time and extremely effective vaccines”.
