Per the immunologist of the CTS Sergio Abrignani the only real solution to counter the possible increase in hospitalizations – especially among the unvaccinated – must be the mandatory vaccine for all: after weeks of clashes, debates and proposals on intensifying the use of Green Pass, the member of the Scientific Technical Committee returns to reiterate his proposal to the Government for a mass vaccination against the Covid-19 emergency.
Interviewed by “La Stampa” Abrignani underlines «The only solution is the obligation to vaccinate against Covid“; the immunologist argues that mandatory is to be introduced in the first place for a “public health reason“, Also to be able to”mitigate what will happen in the coming weeks, ie an increase in hospitalizations of the unvaccinated».
CTS IMMUNOLOGIST: “GREEN PASS WORKS, BUT YOU NEED THE OBLIGATION”
Despite from Israel and the United Kingdom – the two countries in the world that are further ahead in the anti-Covid vaccine campaign – the first results arrive on the long-term effects of the effectiveness of vaccines (in summary, they decrease in effectiveness in preventing contagion but the coverage resists very well as regards hospitalizations and severe symptoms), Abrignani maintains that the vaccination obligation remains as the only real way to reduce the possibility of hospitalization for all citizens who have not yet been vaccinated (about 20% of the over-12 population). “Green Pass? It’s working“, Explains the immunologist to” La Stampa “,”it will become even more effective when it gets colder and many outdoor activities will no longer be possible“. Abrignani says he is optimistic about the possible “social” effects if the vaccine obligation tout court were to be introduced: “Many hesitant will be convinced, some against the vaccine will change their minds but there will always be a significant share of no vax animated by paranoid certainties, and those do not move them, if not by imposing vaccination by law».
