Mandatory green pass, “switchboards flooded for requests”

“The switchboards are flooded” for requests relating to the Green pass in Italy, “but there is great awareness. Minister” Roberto Speranza “also visited 1500 last week and is also trying to strengthen staff this and other services, precisely to respond to the needs, doubts and questions of citizens about this “. Thus Gianni Rezza, general director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, answering questions during the press conference on the analysis of data from the Covid regional monitoring of the control room. “Absolutely maximum sensitivity and awareness”, he guaranteed, ensuring that “we are moving very quickly”. Read also Rezza then explained that “what” exemptions “to the Green pass are being studied. And “I would say that it will be essential to develop recommendations, probably a circular, in a very short time, so that we can be ready on 5-6 August”. “I’ll give an example”, he specified: “A person who cannot get vaccinated, or complete the vaccination course because maybe he has had a serious adverse reaction to a certain vaccine which is what should be reused, then in that case he can study the ‘exemption. As well as there are other cases that we are evaluating “.” The appeal to be vaccinated “against Covid-19,” as regards the over 50s and especially the over 60s, I believe it is right to do so, precisely to avoid the possible congestion of hospitals and of course to protect citizens when a rather contagious variant is circulating “, reiterated the Director General of Prevention of the Ministry of Health.” The death rate of Covid-19 over 60 years is about 2 -3%, so it is not irrelevant – Rezza recalled – so getting vaccinated is extremely important. It is also over the age of 50, even if we have a lethality rate of less than 1%, but the risk of hospitalization in intensive care is not trivial “. So “the excellent adherence” to vaccination “by young people” is fine, because “this can cause the circulation of the virus to be slowed down to some extent”, but the appeal to be vaccinated is aimed above all at the over 50s to over 60.
