Vaccine obligation for medical personnel, Council of State: it is legitimate

The vaccination obligation, it continues, “is imposed to protect not only health personnel, engaged in the fight against the spread of Covid, but also the most fragile patients and people who are hospitalized or go in any case to health or social assistance facilities. “.

“And the vaccination obligation – concludes the Council of State – is not based only on the relationship of care and trust between patient and health care personnel, but also on the more general duty of solidarity (art. 2 of the Constitution) that weighs on all citizens , starting with health personnel, towards the most vulnerable subjects and who would be more exposed to the serious or even lethal consequences of the virus due to contact with unvaccinated subjects “.
