The European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (Ecdc) and the European Medicines Agency (Ema) open the administration of the second booster of the anti-Covid vaccine to all those over 60 and to vulnerable people .

This is what is read in the April guidelines update , in response to the current epidemiological situation.

"Already today we will adapt our guidelines, circulars and indications to this determination . We will immediately open the administration of the fourth dose in our territories also to people over 60 years", declares the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza.

"Woe to think - he warned, speaking at the 12th congress of the Uil Pensionati - that the battle against Covid is won, it is still ongoing and we must keep a level of attention and prudence".

"With the same number of cases we have today - Speranza highlighted - in other moments, when we were without vaccine, we were forced to dramatic closures . Today, as you can see, we have many cases but hospitalizations, in percentage, are completely different compared to to those we have experienced in the past. This is because vaccines work, are effective, are safe and have a great ability to prevent serious hospitalizations. Give us a hand to make us understand how important it is to stay in this challenge ".
