And the fact that 68% of patients in isolation were found with Covid at the time of hospitalization, and conversely the percentage of patients hospitalized for Covid is 32%, means, explains Fiaso, that "there is a great circulation of the virus which, however, mostly encounters vaccinated subjects, without therefore causing symptoms and disease with serious consequences".
In intensive care With Covid it is in fact 16% compared to 84% For Covid.
Furthermore, unlike the 26% increase in all hospitalizations in the South, +18% was recorded in Central Italy and +9% in the North.
"The circulation of the virus is increasing as it normally does in the winter season but at the moment there are no signs of concern: hospitals, after two years of emergency, are now organized to deal with the situation and the number of patients who develop serious consequences is reduced thanks above all to the defenses offered by the vaccine ", comments President Fiaso, Migliore.
