Epidemiologist Giancarlo Icardi: “End of the pandemic in autumn: Covid will become a seasonal flu”

«The surge in infections is due to these new variants: Omicron-4 and Omicro-5 more contagious. In spite of what one might expect in a summer period – when cold viruses are usually not very present – they have characteristics that allow them to be transmitted easily », explains Giancarlo Icardi, epidemiologist, director of the Department of Hygiene of the San Martino Polyclinic.
