The restrictions on travel between Italy and the United States may be lifted "when the risk of infection is very low, hopefully by the end of the summer or the beginning of autumn". Thus the most famous immunologist on the planet, Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infections Diseases (Niaid), during a meeting at the Italian embassy in Washington where he was awarded the honor of Knight of the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic by Ambassador Armando Varricchio.
"The risk of infection must become very low and we are not there yet", observes Fauci while underlining the progress of the immunization campaign, not only in the United States (where there is a decline in cases throughout the nation and 60% of adults did at least one dose), but also in Italy, although to date only 15% of the population is fully vaccinated. "It's a good start. Italy is a little behind but will catch up. Italy needs to secure enough vaccines to vaccinate the majority of the population. There are many options, Moderna, Pfizer, J&J, AstraZeneca. Even the Russian vaccine. it's very good ", emphasizes the scientist of Italian origin.

Virus created in the laboratory, Fauci: "I do not exclude anything"
"On the origins of the virus I think it is right to investigate. I do not exclude that it was created in the laboratory. I do not exclude anything. It is important that an independent, objective, non-partisan investigation is carried out, conducted by a commission without prejudice, in a sense or the other ". "We need to investigate to get to the truth and put an end to this discussion and I hope that China decides to cooperate", remarks Fauci, while the pressure to do so on the part of the scientific community grows. In a letter published in "Science", 18 scientists asked for "greater clarity" on the origins of the coronavirus, taking into consideration both the hypothesis of a species jump in nature and the possibility of an accident in the laboratory.
