The order of doctors of Bologna will evaluate disciplinary measures against colleagues who will publicly speak out against the anti Covid vaccination
.
"It would not be ethically correct and neither respectful of the victims of Covid-19, especially at this historical moment, that even a few doctors have voices against vaccination, not supported by any evidence and based only on unverified news, or worse still, artfully interpreted ", reads a document drawn up by the Vaccines commission of the order and shared by various personalities of the Bolognese health care.
"I echo Bertolaso:
if within a month they give us 4 million vaccines then we will vaccinate all the people of Puglia. But it is a joke because the vaccines will not arrive"
.
This was stated by Pierluigi
Lopalco
, councilor for health of the
Puglia
Region
, at 24Mattino on Radio 24, answering the question about how soon the Apulians will be vaccinated.
Lopalco was not unbalanced on the numbers of vaccinated by the summer because "the supply picture we have reaches the first quarter and we are talking about a few hundred thousand, within the first quarter we will barely be able to vaccinate the over eighty-year-olds in addition to those of first phase ".
'In Lazio at 12 o'clock we have exceeded the quota of 150 thousand reservations, that is, one elderly person in three already has the first and second dose booked, he knows the place and the date just two days from the activation of the service an important result.
There was an uphill start, but the system is now in full swing.
We have also exceeded the quota of 80 thousand double vaccinations administered and the requests of the over 80s for the home vaccine are just over 2 thousand that have been sent to the respective ASL to activate the USCAR or the general practitioner of the assisted joined the vaccination campaign.

Meanwhile, the anti Covid vaccine produced by Oxford / AstraZeneca is confirming a "substantial" efficacy in blocking the transmission of the coronavirus.
This was revealed by the data of an in-depth study in the process of being published, the contents of which were anticipated by Professor Andrew Pollard, head of the Oxford project.
According to Pollard, the effectiveness is also good against the so-called English variant, while unknowns and signs of lesser impact on other new mutations remain.
The results were rated "very good" by virologist Adam Finn, while Matt Hancock, government minister of health of Boris Johnson, called them "superb".
The Italian Medicines Agency (Aifa) "gives the green light to the testing of monoclonal antibodies" and "quickly starts the procedure for administration; it would be a breath of fresh air for the system".
This was stated by the president of the National Federation of the orders of doctors Fnomceo, Filippo Anelli.
"Having this therapeutic option also available, which, under certain conditions, allows - he notes - to reduce hospitalizations and improve clinical results, can be a strategy to carry out the vaccination campaign in a more flexible time".
