Green pass, Brusaferro: “Two doses are passepartout”

“The theme of the Green pass has various connotations. What we as a technical-scientific component can say is that having the widest possible range of the population vaccinated with two doses is the key to being able to better control the circulation of” the virus “and to be able to gain more space of freedom “. This was stated by the president of the Higher Institute of Health (Iss), Silvio Brusaferro, during the press conference on the analysis of the data of the Covid regional monitoring of the control room, answering a question about the Green pass. “It is the bet we have and we can win it – he added – because we have the doses. It is a question of making a conscious, individual choice, but also of public health. How to reach the goal” is a different matter “and I believe here the opinion of politics is also fundamental, where the modalities can be diversified and must take into account the sensitivities and the cultural and social aspects in which we live. It is important to reach the goal. This is a debate on which I believe there must be an effort common”. An aspect on which the Director General of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Gianni Rezza, agrees: “I too believe that politics must make certain decisions. As an epidemiologist I would do everything to block the risk. But it is clear that there are the needs of individuals and the economy. And in the end, balanced choices must be made. We talk about acceptable, calculated risk. It is up to politics to make its own choices “, he concluded.
