The times for him Vaccine for COVID-19 They stretch. It will not arrive in Italy at the end of the year and in the world it will not have full coverage before 2022. The two forecasts are given by the Deputy Minister of Health, Pierpaolo sileri, as regards Italy and WHO. Sileri talks about it to the microphones of the broadcast ‘Italy has awakened’ on Radio Cusano Campus: “I am optimistic about the vaccine, but I am realistic and say that it will not be until the middle of next year”.
Sileri: the vaccine will take several months
Sileri focuses on the Covid epidemic and the current situation: “Normality will occur if the virus changes to a favorable form for us, or when we achieve a herd immunity, but with the numbers we have it would take time, so the possibility of the vaccine remains. It will take many months, I think next year we will still need to protect ourselves, with the habit of security measures that we are observing. Let’s not forget that this virus severely affects the elderly and those with pre-existing diseases, it is they who must protect while the virus circulates”.
Another issue is quarantine, and the government is considering reducing it from 14 days to 10 days or less. By Sileri “a good compromise would be to quarantine 7 days and then do the swab. With the return to school the surveillance phase will be essential. I don’t think there is a second wave like we experienced in February and March. The commitment of our National Health Service is currently very low because the data is low and as long as the situation is, it is under control”.
For the WHO vaccine for all not before 2022
Even globally, the situation is not the most encouraging. by Soumya Swaminathan, WHO researcher, “it will take a long time to achieve herd immunityIn fact, he explains to the BBC that “no doubt we will have to wait until 2022 and until then the populations must be disciplined“The invitation, to all countries, is”don’t take shortcuts “. Also because, continues the researcher from the World Health Organization, we need to get a vaccine “without compromising safety”.
