“All of Italy, or almost, in the yellow zone”. This is the scenario outlined by Luca Zaia, governor of Veneto, if the growth of covid infections continues. “If this continues, all of Italy, or almost all of Italy, will turn yellow in the coming weeks”, Zaia told Start, on Sky TG24. “Then on the one hand there is the game of the Super green pass which should at least secure and prevent the closure of what are the orange areas, which would provide, in fact, the closure of the municipal boundaries and many activities such as bars and restaurants”, adds. “And on the other hand, instead, the strategy is to vaccinate, and I see willingly that there is this day, it seems to be tomorrow, which includes important vaccination actions”, he says on the eve, among other things, of the decision. that Aifa could take in the next few hours in relation to the vaccine for children in the 5-11 year old group. “Obviously – Zaia emphasizes – the appeal to citizens is to go and get vaccinated. To those who have not taken the first dose, I ask to evaluate it thoroughly, instead those who have done both doses do not wait to book for the recall”. In Veneto, infections have reached 2,000 and an increase in hospitalizations has been reported. The vaccination campaign is proceeding. “I must say -he points out- that in Veneto in the last few days there has been an important increase in first administrations and we consider that, from today, in our Region, there will be direct access so that reservations will not even be needed”.
