Vaccine, Pregliasco: “Third dose to be ready against virus tail hit”

“Today in Italy there is a slight decrease in infections from Covid but we must also plan and plan scenarios that foresee a new tail” of the pandemic and “equip ourselves as best we can to secure the most fragile. Here is the third dose of coronavirus vaccine for immunosuppressed and frail elderly people goes in the right direction “. The virologist of the University of Milan, Fabrizio Pregliasco, underlines this to Adnkronos Salute, commenting on the green light of the Technical Scientific Commission (Cts) of the Italian Medicines Agency Aifa for the administration of the third dose of vaccine. “The choice is dictated by the data that now confirm a reduction in vaccination coverage over time – adds Pregliasco – Then it will be evaluated whether to extend the third dose to everyone or to consider the residual protection that exists and will be evaluated sufficient”.
