Adviser to the Minister of Health for the Corona emergency in Italy, Walter Ricciardi, revealed that with the most contagious delta mutant of the Corona virus, one can today become infected even if he is vaccinated.

And the Italian agency Aki quoted Ricciardi as saying that “this mutant can also penetrate the double course of vaccination, which gives some protection against serious symptoms and the need for hospitalization and can cause infection even in people who received the second dose of the vaccine in 30 and 35 percent of cases, not to mention a single dose.” “.

Ricciardi stressed that "the need to vaccinate as quickly as possible is also related to the fact that the more we hesitate, we leave the possibility for the virus to choose the mutant that not only penetrate the effect of the vaccine and transmit infection, but also puncture the immunity shield," adding, "At the moment we are looking very carefully at the circulating Delta Plus mutant In India, and the lambda mutant that was isolated in Peru, which worries us greatly.”

He explained, "Therefore, we vaccinate early to protect people from the need for hospitalization and dangerous symptoms, then we will make decisions when identifying the mutant that appear in the world, because in Europe we have vaccinated 50 percent of the population, but vaccination still includes 1 percent in Africa and 3 percent in Asia only." So the virus now has hundreds of millions of people it can manipulate to try to get around our defenses.”
