An important news that gives serenity and certainty of the vaccination campaign, avoiding dangerous stops “. The commissioner recalls that the TAR decree comes “moreover, on a day in which all the main health institutions of our country, from the Higher Health Council to Aifa, have emphasized the goodness of the choice, both for scientific and practical reasons. “. “Now full speed ahead – urges D’Amato – The application of the circular of the Ministry of Health will allow in the month of May alone to vaccinate over 100 thousand more citizens with the first dose, increasing the coverage rate, without reducing the effects of immunization on who will receive the second dose at 35 days “.
