While about fifty no vax protest in front of the headquarters of the Consulta in the name of "freedom of self-determination", the Constitutional Court saves the obligation of the anti-Covid vaccine introduced in 2021 by the Draghi government for the over 50s and some professional categories such as health workers , law enforcement and teachers .
For the judges, the questions posed by five judicial offices are "inadmissible and unfounded": in particular, that relating to the impossibility for unvaccinated health workers to carry out their work. The choices made by the legislator during the pandemic are neither "unreasonable" nor "disproportionate" .
The stop to the salary for the professional categories suspended from work is also right. The applicants requested that the suspended workers be paid an allowance paid by the employer for all salaries not received in recent months.
The Communications and Press Office of the Constitutional Court gave notice of the sentences in a brief note, pending their filing.
Sanctions - about 2 million - will start today for all people who have not been vaccinated despite belonging to the categories subject to the obligation . In fact, the 180 days established to justify failure to fulfill the obligation have expired.
