We have protected the vast majority of people. fragile and this puts us in a position to look forward to the next few weeks with confidence, we must continue to run. In June we will have even more doses and we will be able to run even more, we must have confidence but we must keep our feet on the ground by continuing a gradual path. keep this approach even in summer, mask and spacing remain fundamental. But little by little there are the conditions to savor so many things that we had to put aside “, says the minister.

The fundamental rules do not distort existence: mask and distance are compatible with a substantially regular and normal life. We must not forget the very difficult days. we’ve been through “.
