 "Incredible, I didn't hear anything."

Thus the young Anna from Messina on the administration of the vaccine with the Nfit, a needle-free syringe that inoculates the serum at high speed in the arm, in a few moments and without pain.


    The medical device, especially suitable for 'agophobics', called Comfort-in, already certified by the European Union and used for other pathologies, was used for the first time in the Continent for the administration of an anti Covid vaccine in the Fiera di Messina hub. .


    "The City of the Strait - said Alberto Firenze, commissioner for the Covid emergency - becomes a pioneer of a new system of inoculation of vaccine doses. A way to convince people who fear the bite to join the vaccination campaign that has now reached numbers and important milestones, especially in the province of Messina. Today there is one more reason to receive the vaccine. The needle-free vaccine will be possible at first in the Fiera Hub, but then we will extend it to other points ".


    Comfort-in totally eliminates the needle and allows intramuscular administration with total absorption of the substance: Messina is the first city in Europe to apply the method already tested in the USA, Australia and India. "Specifically, the device uses a disposable syringe called a sterile nozzle without a needle - explained Arturo Maravigna, manager of the Gamastech company which has the exclusive of Confort-in for all of Europe - capable of launching a jet at high speed in the arm by replacing the traditional puncture through a 0.15mm micro hole that projects the drug into the human body in less than 100 milliseconds.


    Comfort-in was created for subcutaneous or intramuscular administration of medicinal substances and guarantees ease of use, safety,speed and effectiveness ". (ANSA).
