Mascherine, Sileri: “Goodbye obligation after June 15 but always useful”

“It is desirable that after June 15 we go towards the stop to the obligation of the mask, I personally would keep it equally on public transport and on airplanes”. Thus the Undersecretary of Health Pierpaolo Sileri, guest of ‘Buongiorno’ on SkyTg24, who immediately after underlined: “But I believe that a complete elimination of the obligation is desirable”.

We are largely vaccinated, intensive care is emptying. But what is the risk? “. “It is that if unfortunately this new variant were to infect more and be more pathogenic, we may find ourselves overloaded in some areas of the country and this would slow down the numbers left behind in non-Covid. Today we must recover the patients who need to interventions for other pathologies and have fallen behind “, he specified. Looking at September, “the way things are today I think that the mask will not be worn at school in October. I hope that the scientific world will also show us this, even if the mask has its usefulness”.
