25 May 2021 In Italy with the "first dose we are about 21.5 million and then 10 million have done the second dose. If we add to the 21.5 the 3.5 million people who have recovered from Covid we reach about 25 million who in somehow they are shielded from the more serious effects of the disease and from intensive care. This protects us. " This was stated by the extraordinary commissioner Francesco Paolo Figliuolo during a Di Martedì television broadcast, broadcast on La7. "Doing - he added - always 500,000 doses per day, like last week when we reached 3.5 million doses, is linked to the arrival of vaccines. Unfortunately, the doses do not arrive on a regular basis".



We will all be vaccinated in September

"We will get out of it as soon as possible, we will all be vaccinated by September. Then the science goes on, and the virus too. It is intelligent, it moves according to logical-mathematical patterns and must be kept under control". Answering a question about what he will do once his task is finished and if he is tempted by politics, General Figliuolo said: "I prefer to continue to be in the military, perhaps with another beautiful job".



Machine administers 90-95% doses distributed 

The commissioner then thanked his team: "We organized an activity that took us from 1,500 vaccination points to over 2,600. We have a machine that when I arrived was able to administer 70% of this. that was distributed, today we administer between 90 and 95% ".



Intercepting the people of the most at-risk classes

"We have ensured that today there has been a sudden drop in hospitalizations, intensive care and deaths. So we are vaccinating at a good pace. more at risk that they are not yet vaccinated. It is a job that is being done together with the Regions that are calling people ". "Among these, a small part does not want to vaccinate, but many are not adequately informed. There are ASL teams in action and itinerant defense teams that have already administered 35 thousand doses".



By the end of June we will finish the fragile classes

"The vaccination plan is well set up and is moving forward. Do not give up on the most fragile categories to be secured, which we will finish by the end of June, afterwards we can go in parallel for age groups. When we have more doses we can go in parallel on all classes intercepting the youngest ".



Vaccines on vacation? I'm not against it, but no transhumance

"Vaccines on vacation? I'm not against it because now Italy's priority is to get vaccinated. If the conditions are right, the Conference of Regions can make proposals and some presidents have made it. But I want a harmonious picture ". "If there are special cases let's look at them, but I wanted to avoid transhumance of vaccines and vaccinators in places of Italy where there are small principals who already have difficulties ".
