The fourth dose of Covid vaccine for immunosuppressed people will be inoculated at least 120 days after the third. The ministry clarifies this in a circular signed by the director general of Prevention, Gianni Rezza.
Taking into account the current epidemiological situation, "which continues to record a high circulation of the Sars-CoV-2 virus" and "in compliance with the principle of maximum precaution, subjects with markedly impaired immune response are recommended to administer a dose of mRNA vaccine, as a booster of a three-dose primary vaccine course (standard primary course plus additional dose) "provided that" a minimum interval of at least 120 days has elapsed from the additional dose ".
HOPE: "STOP THE CUTS" - "If the country has withstood such a difficult test, despite paying an important price in terms of human lives, but also in terms of closures and changes in our lives, it is because we have an extraordinary service national health care that we must defend and whose heart are the women and men who animate it ".
This was stated by the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, to Fnomceo (National Federation of the Orders of Physicians and Dentists) for the second day of the health personnel to whom he addresses "gratitude", underlining the end of the cutting season and investments in the field : 124 billion in the latest budget law, 20 billion from the NRP and EU funds on disadvantaged areas.
So the point about vaccines: "Two years ago we were forced to make difficult choices, today 91% of the population over 12 has been vaccinated and this puts us in a position to manage the pandemic in a completely different way, which unfortunately is still in progress, and in these hours it is allowing us to bend the curve without resorting to generalized closures ".
"We have administered - the conclusion - in 13 and a half months 133 million doses and this can only be done by a large country, only a large National Health Service made up of men and women like you".
