"We were raided. Inside Palazzo Pirelli. On our floors. After our post denouncing the anti-vax conference promoted by Lega Nord member Emanuele Monti, which was also attended by the Brothers of Italy group leader Christian Garavaglia, about thirty people came up to our offices. They arrived in a group, shouting, verbally attacking the staff members present, and attacking anyone they found. They came looking for us." The regional branch of the Democratic Party (PD) in Lombardy reported the incident on social media.
With the intervention of the DIGOS (Special Operations Unit) and the Regional Council's oversight committee, the violent protesters "were removed and brought back to their event site. The same event where there was talk of a 'political class complicit in vaccine damage and hospital deaths' during the pandemic emergency and of a 'global bioterrorist' act."
The same event, the Democratic Party further emphasizes, "where vaccines were compared to a 'chemical weapon' and bullets. The same event where calls were made to abolish mandatory vaccinations, while people in the room were wearing anti-vax T-shirts. And the same event where, among others, Dario Miedico spoke. He was struck off the Medical Association in 2017 for 'having made propaganda against pediatric vaccinations, in violation of national and international guidelines, the provisions of the National Health System and regional directives, as well as the evidence of the available scientific literature', and was subsequently reinstated after the measure was annulled for procedural reasons."
What happened today is serious, the Lombard Democrats denounce: " First, the institutional doors are thrown open to anti-scientific propaganda. Then, when someone reports it, about thirty people rush to his offices, shouting and seeking a face-to-face meeting . This is not a dialogue, and we will not be intimidated."
