“At this moment the circulation of the virus in our country is still high and the end of the state of emergency certainly does not mean the end of the pandemic”. Health Minister Roberto Speranza said this in the Chamber. “As always – he added – the Government will adapt its measures and assessments to the trend of the epidemiological situation which – he concluded – we continue to observe and monitor with the utmost attention”.
“The CTS of Aifa just yesterday began working in the direction of allowing more direct access to antivirals through general practitioners. Antivirals are important”, said Minister Speranza. “Antivirals – she added – do not replace vaccines which remain the decisive tool in the fight against Covid”. Molnupiravir and Paxlovid are drugs in use in Italy since February and as of March 30, 5,171 treatments of Paxlovid have been administered, + 31% in the week of March 17-23. If we are in a different phase it is thanks to science with safe vaccines and drugs “.
“The numbers of the vaccination campaign in Italy are among the best in the world: over 91% did the first dose, almost 90% the second and about 39 million people did the booster”, said health minister Roberto Hope. The new phase is based above all on these numbers which have been favored by the significant use of the green pass and by all the regulations on the subject of vaccination obligations “.
“We have confirmed the validity of the obligation and sanction of suspension from work for all health and non-health personnel who work in health and social-health structures. The rationale of the law is to be traced back to the need to protect the places to which they have access as much as possible frail people: this is true for hospitals and outpatient clinics as well as in particular for RSAs where it is still very appropriate to keep the highest level of attention “. said Health Minister Roberto Speranza.
