Roberto Speranza confirms the possibility that even after the Christmas holidays there will be red zones. The Minister of Health, on the same day that vaccination campaign in Italy, quenches the enthusiasm of those who believed that the restrictions may end after january 6, with the reopening of bars and restaurants and a relaxation of current prohibitions.
As, among other things, Giuseppe Conte reiterated in a recent interview with Porta a Porta, in which the prime minister did not hide the possibility of a generalized blockade In the case of third wave of Covid, even the Minister of Health confirmed that after the Christmas holidays there won’t be a smoother line. In fact, it will recover with the mechanism of Colored regions, with the possibility that there may be again from the red zones (with the situation in Veneto, for example, which is increasingly worrying).
Even after the holidays, therefore, there is a risk that we will remain locked up: everything will depend on the health situation in individual territoriesBut the truth is that it will be more time before we see the positive effects of the vaccine.
Italy, due to the effects of the vaccine, it takes time: in January we return to the red zones
Although the Covid vaccine has finally arrived in Italy, with the first vaccinations starting today, it is still soon to see the positive effects of the vaccination campaign. Suffice it to say that immunity is not reached before 30 days and that at the moment the doses are too low to suggest a herd immunity.
For this reason, as the Health Minister in an interview with Republic, in the coming months the only weapons available will continue to be the non-pharmacological measures “that cannot be removed”.
And the measures to which Speranza refers are those implemented before the restrictions provided by the Christmas Decree: therefore Regions “colored” according to the severity of the situation. There is a possibility that with the end of the Christmas holidays – with the current bans that will remain in effect until January 6 – there will be Regions that will be in Red zone and others who will become orange.
Referring to vaccines, in fact, the Minister of Health explained that even if it is a “moment to receive with joy“- we must be aware”that we won’t see the epidemiological impact for a significant time yet”.
In short, after the holidays we will not be able to lower our guard and as of January 7 the closures will be divided by bands with the three colors according to the epidemiological context. A system that has already proven to work since by dividing Italy by bands it was possible to lower the RT from 1.7 to 0.82 without having to block the entire country.
Italy in the red zone in case of a third wave?
And if the data worsens the risk that more and more Regions Red zone it is concrete.
On the other hand, the possibility of a the third wave is high and the Covid vaccine for the moment will have no impact: that is why, as Giuseppe Conte did not hide, immediately after the Epiphany they could be found in red zone different regions and until the first effects of the vaccine are seen, the “colors“It will not be terminated.
