Varante Delta, Ricciardi: “An unvaccinated sooner or later catches her”

“The Delta variant of Covid is so contagious that in a closed environment, for work or leisure, if there is any infected person, the virus is transmitted with great ease. So there is a need to protect everyone’s health. With the Green pass, practically extended to all closed places, both for work and leisure activities, we have the guarantee that we can face the winter in a calm way. The problem remains that the Delta variant, due to its characteristics , whoever is not vaccinated sooner or later catches it. And, depending on the case, it can face serious consequences “. To tell Adnkronos Salute is Walter Ricciardi, advisor to the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza and professor of Hygiene at the Catholic University of Rome. With regard to the protests related to the Green pass and the obligation for workers from October 15, Ricciardi reminds us that the State is making “a free, safe, immunogenic, protective vaccine available to the entire population, which allows, at the same time, to protect health and to do all the activities, work and leisure. And this is the only tool that allows us, little by little, to return to a normal life, passing with relative serenity a winter that, instead, presents itself as problematic for who does not get vaccinated. It is a measure of ‘gentle push’ to get vaccinated. Then everyone is free to do what they want, but without compromising the health and safety of others “.
