REZZA: ‘ENDEMIC VIRUS, FREQUENT WAVES, BUT REDUCED INTENSITY’
The SarsCoV2 virus “is becoming endemic and we expect new frequent waves of limited intensity. We are returning to normal life but there will be limitations and selective use of masks will be required.” This is the picture outlined by the Director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Gianni Rezza, on the occasion of the World Health Summit Regional Meeting, which takes place at La Sapienza University until June 17. “Even now – he said – we expect a new wave but we think that the intensity will be limited. However, we need to quickly adapt the vaccines to the variants, even speeding up the approvals”
