  According to reports, according to the official document issued by the director of the Italian New Coronavirus Emergency Committee, Figglioro, on the 14th, the country must be vaccinated at least 500,000 people every day to ensure that 80% of the population is vaccinated before the end of September.

  Figgliolo said that Italy has purchased 7.9 million doses of vaccine so far, and it is expected that another 52 million doses of vaccine will be obtained by the end of June.

Italy will use 1.5% of the vaccine as a reserve dose to cope with sudden demand, and other vaccines will be immediately sent to areas that need to be vaccinated.

  In addition, the Piedmont Region notified on the 14th that a teacher in Biella City in the region died after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine. The regional government has decided to suspend the use of the ABV5811 batch of AstraZeneca vaccine.

The vaccine batch that caused the death of the vaccinator is different from the ABV2856 batch involved in the 3 suspected fatal cases in Sicily.

  The 58-year-old teacher died in just one day after being vaccinated with a vaccine developed by AstraZeneca in cooperation with the University of Oxford.

Icardi, the health commissioner of the Piedmont Region, said that the Piedmont Region has suspended vaccination of this batch of AstraZeneca vaccine and is cautiously assessing whether there is a causal relationship between the death of the vaccinators and the vaccine.

  Recently, three public officials in Sicily, southern Italy, died after being vaccinated with AstraZeneca. The deceased were classified as Italian navy soldiers, local police and military police.

The Italian Medicines Agency has halted the AstraZeneca vaccination work involving the ABV2856 batch in Sicily.

  At present, some European countries, including Italy, Austria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Denmark, and Norway, have announced the suspension of related batches of AstraZeneca vaccination.
