Lombardy’s plans, in the most optimistic prospects, were to start administering the vaccine to this group starting from 19 May to end on 7 June. The under 49 to vaccinate, however, will be 4 million. “The vaccination campaign – underlined the president Attilio Fontana in an interview with SkyTg24 – is proceeding swiftly. Unfortunately, due to the lack of vaccines we had to slow down, in fact General Figliuolo lowered the target for our region, which now stands at around 85,000 inoculations per day. However, I want to underline that Lombardy is the only one, together with two other regions, to have maintained and exceeded the targets “.
