Covid Italia, Costa: “Stop the data on daily infections”

“We must certainly monitor, track, be cautious but not turn it into fear and not give too much relevance to what are the data of the daily infections, I would not even communicate them anymore because there is a risk of generating a climate that does not help. We need to renew the relationship of trust between citizens and vaccines and continue to immunize ourselves “. This was stated by Undersecretary for Health Andrea Costa, guest of ‘Inside the facts’ on TgCom24. “” There is the awareness that we absolutely must change the parameters – argues Costa – and we must not ensure that the number of infections is the data that constrains closures and color changes in the Regions. We must remember that our percentage of pressure on intensive care is at 2%, so we are facing positive numbers “. Costa then states that” we are not facing a slowdown in anti-Covid vaccinations. “We closed last week. with 550 thousand doses administered per day – highlights the undersecretary -. It is clear that it is a time when second doses are prevalent, but if the goal is to immunize 43 million of our fellow citizens, and if we consider that 37 million have already received the first dose, in reality there are only 6-7 million missing. they must receive the first dose. By the time we are at 27 million second doses, to reach 43 million all in all it is physiological that there is an increase now in calls “. Costa finally confirms that” we are moving towards a change in the parameters for the colors of the Regions, with a greater weight to hospitalizations “from Covid-19” compared to the number of infections “.
