“In my opinion we are experiencing the peak, and then the descent will come, which will probably be even faster. Many people have become positive, many are vaccinated with the third dose, some with the fourth and therefore the wave will end even earlier. The numbers of admissions, although they have risen, will never be what we have seen in the past. We have to prepare for October with the updated vaccine ”.
The Undersecretary of Health, Pierpaolo Sileri, assures this to the microphones of the broadcast “Up to here, everything is fine” on Radio Cusano Campus.
Spiega Sileri: “This is not the time to be able to make a positive person free from isolation. It can perhaps be done in 3 or 4 months, if we have a variant that responds well to current vaccines, with hospitals having very few hospitalized people and with up-to-date vaccines. With these cards on the table, we can also think about removing the isolation for asymptomatic positives. The decision to free asymptomatic and even symptomatic patients from isolation is not political, nor can it be made today. It may be feasible as soon as the papers on variants and updated vaccines are revealed ”.
Regarding the school, the undersecretary points out: “Protocols will be provided, but everything will depend on the circulation of the virus and vaccinations. But what we will experience from October cannot be superimposed on what we experienced in October 2020 and 2021. The protocols will be there, but they will be much lighter. Treating this type of infection will need to be started as it treats the seasonal flu epidemic, albeit a more severe infection than the flu. In the near future, that is, it will be necessary to start managing it as the most severe viral infections are managed. The year 2022 will be of transition. But I tell you today that I don’t see major restrictions like in the past ”.
