"The vaccine - says the president of the Region, Christian Solinas - remains our strongest weapon against the virus, today more than ever. Our health system continues to record important numbers in this campaign and we will continue to do our part with the utmost commitment to counter the pandemic and guarantee the safety of all and in particular of the most fragile ".
"Once again - adds the regional health councilor, Mario Nieddu - the virus is proving to be a dangerous enemy. In the face of a surge in infections, due to variants, the vaccine has significantly reduced the impact on hospitals. The epidemiological picture is monitored with the utmost attention. We must not underestimate the spread of the infection and continue to take all the indispensable measures against the spread of the virus ".
