Remuzzi: “Covid will disappear around 2024, vaccinate the world population”

“Covid will disappear around 2024, the world population must be vaccinated”. This was stated by Giuseppe Remuzzi, director of the Mario Negri Institute in Milan, guest of ‘Half an hour more’ on Rai3. “Teenagers must be vaccinated”, he then added, explaining that “the problem is when they must be vaccinated compared to planning a vaccination campaign. At this moment in Italy we have some priorities: we still have 10% of those over 60 and 50% of those over 50 who have not been vaccinated. We have to vaccinate 85-90% of those over thirty “. “Once this is done, it will then be necessary to privilege the second dose for the elderly and for those at risk according to the possibility that the delta variant, the Indian one, arrives in Italy”, already present in very low percentages, but which is spreading rapidly in the Kingdom United, he stressed. “Teens need to be vaccinated, but not now as the priority is to finish vaccinating people who are most at risk of hospitalization,” he concluded.
