March 14, 2021 More vaccines, more staff, more centers.

The immunization campaign against Covid-19 passes through these three objectives with a crescendo of available doses.

“At the end of the month we will reach 15 million, in the next quarter we will have 52 million, in the third 84 million doses”.

The covid emergency commissioner Francesco Figliuolo said to “Che tempo che fa” on Rai3.

Then an invitation to use common sense: "I want to deepen the question of the doses thrown away. If there are priority classes that can use it well, otherwise you go to neighboring classes or otherwise anyone who passes must be vaccinated; this must be done".  



“There was a strong action by President Draghi - explained Figliuolo - on the top management of pharmaceutical companies.

At my level I have heard almost all the CEOs.

In April, Johnson and Johnson will start arriving, a single-dose vaccine, with about 25 million doses in the second quarter, which is like having 50 million. "This is a delicate and important phase, the Commissioner said," either we turn or we lose everything. March we will warm up then from the second decade of April there will gradually be 500,000 vaccinations. Some regions now reach 100 150,000, others not: my task will be to bring balance to other regions as well and I will go personally to see ".



But the role of citizens will determine the victory over Covid.

"We will do everything we have to do, if there are any mistakes we will improve, I am sure that our extraordinary people will do their part because in the most difficult moments they have always done it." The priority will be to vaccinate parents and carers, of the most fragile people. " We are aligning the information systems, thanks to a great effort by the Italian Post Office which has made a system available and we are integrating it with a health card so that the information circulates and reaches everyone. We will field Civil Protection and where there are problems at the regional level, I will make targeted groups. "



Vaccinations will be done everywhere" from pharmacies to sports halls. "There will be a time when, when vaccines arrive in mass, it will be possible to make 'fire with all the powders'. We will saturate all the centers, all the points: we will show up, get vaccinated and close the game ".
