Vaccini covid, Codacons: after Burioni, ‘torpedo’ to Bassetti

Codacons harshly replies to the infectious disease specialist Matteo Bassetti, who today in an interview with Adnkronos Salute defined the association’s complaint against Roberto Burioni as “paradoxical”. “What is truly paradoxical is that Bassetti did not in the least understand that our complaint was certainly not against vaccines, but against Burioni – explains Codacons – Denouncing a doctor who gives in to insults and vulgarity on social networks, and that in doing so it damages the campaign in favor of vaccines, it has nothing to do with the defense of no-vaxes, and we would have sued the virologist even if he had used the same terms to define other categories of users “. “It is strange that a doctor like Bassetti talks so inappropriately and indulges in inappropriate statements – observes the association – without in the least inquiring about the contents of our complaint against Burioni, and without knowing that Codacons was the association that in Italy it has done more in favor of vaccines, denouncing the delays in supplying pharmaceutical companies and taking action with dozens and dozens of complaints and requests to ensure vaccination for all Italians “. For Codacons,” Matteo Bassetti would have done better to distance yourself from Roberto Burioni’s verbal aggression, apologizing to the citizens on behalf of the entire category of doctors, and we invite him, given that he seems tired and is documenting himself very briefly, to desert the mass media for a while “, he concludes the association.
