Both “are isolated and have followed, along with other relatives and close contacts, all the procedures established by the Ministry of Health.” This is what is stated in a note from the ministry itself.

Berlin: “Effective vaccine against virus variant” European Union experts believe that existing Covid vaccines are also effective for the variant of the virus identified in Britain. German Health Minister Jens Spahn told public broadcaster Zdf. “Based on all we know so far,” the variant “has no impact on vaccines,” which remain “effective,” Spahn said, citing “expert discussions with European authorities.”

Rezza: “Variant is no longer aggressive” Spahn’s words are also confirmed by Gianni Rezza, General Director of Prevention of the Ministry of Health. “The Sars-CoV2 variant currently circulating in London and south-east England has mutations in the virus’s surface protein, the so-called Spike. Although it is hypothesized that these mutations may increase the transmissibility of the virus, they do not appear to alter neither clinical aggression nor response to the vaccine. “

Esperanza: “The English variant spreads faster” The Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, explained, interviewed in “Half an hour more” on Rai 3 that the “variant of the coronavirus and the diffusion capacity is approximately 70% more significant”. He then explained that Italy, as a precautionary measure, has decided to block flights to Great Britain, “to give our scientists the opportunity to understand the scope of the virus we are facing.”
