Disposable with high speed jet that replaces use of the needle
Messina is the first city in Europe that will use an innovative method to administer anti-covid vaccines: the technology, already used by the United States, Australia and India, consists of a high-speed jet that completely replaces the use of the needle, therefore of the traditional puncture, and guarantees total absorption of the vaccine intramuscularly.
The CE certified ‘Comfort-in’ medical device is designed for subcutaneous or intramuscular administration of medicinal substances. The simplicity and absolute safety make it ideal for any type of infusion with important advantages for the patient, especially for those who suffer from agophobia.
The “device” uses the “nozzle”: a real syringe, without needle, sterile and disposable, able to inject the vaccine into the arm through a micro hole that projects the drug into the body in less than 100 milliseconds. The initiative, which adds to and does not replace the classic administration of vaccines with syringe and needle, allows the use of different types of vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna, Janssen, Astrazeneca) and will be illustrated tomorrow at 11.30 at a press conference, in hub Fiera di Messina, by the Covid emergency commissioner Alberto Firenze, by the acting general manager Asp Messina Dino Alagna and by Arturo Maravigna, manager of the Gamastech company, who supplied the device for which he is the exclusive agent for Europe.
