Vaccine plan enters Phase 1

The national vaccine plan has already entered the so-called ‘Phase 1’, that is, the one that foresees the administration of doses to health and social-health workers and to staff and guests of nursing homes, an audience of about 2 millions of people. Yesterday the DHL planes arrived at 10 Italian airports with the 469,950 doses of Pfizer vaccine, which are currently reaching the 203 administration points scattered around the trunk. In many cases, the vaccine has already arrived and some facilities have even started administering it.

Dosage of Pfizer and Moderna in Italy, awaiting AstraZeneca

Therefore, it will be, in fact, the first real stage of ‘mass’ vaccination, which could also be accelerated with the acquisition, announced by the president of the Higher Health Council, Franco Locatelli, of additional doses of Pfizer and Moderna. A decision matured following the postponement of the timing for approval by the EMA of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine on which Italy had focused heavily. “At this time – Locatelli stressed – there is no alarm signal about an extension of time for the anti-Covid vaccination campaign in Italy.”
