In Italy, both the positivity rate and the pressure on hospitals are increasing: the critical threshold of 30% occupancy of beds in intensive care by Covid patients was exceeded. Italy still lags behind in covid vaccines with no more than 200,000 doses per day. However, the commissioner for the Covid emergency, General Francesco Paolo Figliuolo, announced that in the next 24 hours around one million doses of the Pfizer vaccine will be distributed to the Regions to accelerate the vaccination campaign: 214 vaccination centers affected. After meeting with Prime Minister Mario Draghi and Chief of Civil Protection Francesco Curcio, Figliuolo explained that at the end of the first quarter, more than 14 million vaccines will be distributed in the Regions. So far 8 million doses have been administered, while 2.5 million people are fully vaccinated.
More than 123.6 million cases and 2.7 million deaths worldwide. In Germany, the lockdown has been extended as Merkel threatens to block vaccine exports if AstraZeneca does not honor deliveries. The Biden administration in the US also fears delays in Johnson & Johnson vaccine deliveries. Vaccines are the strong point in the United Kingdom, where there are 17 new deaths recorded in Britain among people positive for the coronavirus. This is the lowest figure since September 28, when there were 13.
