 The data show "an increase in the epidemic curve, with a progressive increase in the weekly incidence of new cases and in the mean Rt calculated on symptomatic cases equal to 0.96 (still below the epidemic threshold), compared to 0.86 last week and 0.83 in the last week of September ". This was revealed by a circular from Commissioner Francesco Figliuolo, underlining that "the growth of infections does not correspond, for now, to a proportional increase in hospitalizations: according to the survey updated to November 3, 3,029 people are hospitalized with symptoms in ordinary hospitalization and 381 in intensive care , compared respectively to 3,198 and 440 patients hospitalized as at 30 September last ". 

 What is happening in some European countries with "the so-called 'pandemic of the unvaccinated" strongly indicates "the need to increase the rate of administration of third doses" and to "continue with the completion of the primary cycles".

This is what the Commissioner for the emergency Francesco Figliuolo writes in a circular in which he asks the Regions to "reinforce the work of information and awareness on vaccination" against covid. To date, "the health authorities have provided indications on the administration of the 'booster' doses according to the personal criteria only", that is, those over 60, "except for health personnel and subjects with high frailty and subjects vaccinated with single-dose product. Therefore, at the moment there is no provision for additional potential target groups (eg school sector, security / defense, etc.), except for any future recommendations by the competent health authorities ". It can be read in a circular from the Commissioner forCovid emergency Francesco Figliuolo.
