The first Minister, Giuseppe Conte, excludes the possibility that the anti-Covid vaccination It is mandatory for Italian citizens. “We exclude mandatory vaccination“The Prime Minister clearly stated during the usual end-of-year press conference. “Let the vaccination campaign begin. Let’s see the comments there will be. We trust in being able to reach a good percentage of the population even optionally”Conte says, answering a question about when the first results of the vaccination campaign will be seen. Confirming, therefore, that the administration of the vaccine will not be mandatory.

The Prime Minister focuses on Italian vaccination plan and on the forecasts on the administration of doses: “When we start to have a significant impact we can say that we have concluded phase one, when 10 to 15 million people get vaccinated, I don’t think before April.“Only then, therefore, can an assessment be made of how the vaccination campaign is going. Conte recalls that”we received the first 9,750 doses of vaccine, now the first available plan from Pfizer provides another 470,000 doses per week”.

By January, Conte explains, “we will reach 2 million and 350 thousand“Dose:”Then in January, the Moderna vaccine will be added. First we vaccinate health workers, then RSA neighbors, almost 1.8 million people. Followed by those over 80, who are almost 1.4 million; then the 13 million between 70 and 80 years old, then the chronically ill who are over 7 million“The prime minister had also answered a question about himself, explaining that he would get the vaccine right away, but – adds – “I will try to respect the priorities approved by the House and also by the State Conference of Regions.”.

Conte also expressed his solidarity with the threatened nurse on social media after receiving the vaccine: “Maximum solidarity with Claudia Alivernini, who was insulted after having undergone the vaccine: it is unacceptable. Hate online is unacceptable in itself, but even more so when it comes to a campaign aimed at protecting all citizens.“. And in doses bought in Italy and from other European countries, comments: “Italy, France, Germany, and the Netherlands were the first countries to move toward the vaccine alliance. After getting contacts with the main pharmaceutical companies, they threw the ball to the EU. This is a political choice, because we believe that it is necessary to act in unison. We have not looked for additional doses because the doses we have achieved in Europe are hundreds of millions, therefore more than enough. Article 7 prohibits bilateral contracting if access is made at European level, so Italy has not requested other doses“.

At the time of vaccination campaign and on the summer outlook: “Don’t ask me for omens that are more suitable for fortune-tellers than for the prime minister. I did not say that when the first phase of the vaccination campaign is completed we will come out of the emergency. I said that in April we will have a first impact, but not a definitive one. The pandemic problem may not be resolved during the summer. If we look at the experience already lived, we have seen that the curve tends to go down in summer. We have a system, that of the yellow, orange and red zones, which allows us limited interventions. We will continue to use this mechanism to keep the economy going. But don’t ask me what next summer will be like. Let’s worry about the reboot now. Then we will start planning the summer, but we will do it with the experts“.

Finally in a can license for vaccinated Conte comments: “We will conduct these evaluations. We have not decided anything yet, but we will think, for example, of greater mobility for those who get vaccinated. However, for now it is the turn of the priority categories. We will not make it mandatory for anyone, but we also believe that as people get vaccinated there will also be more confidence “.
