Italian virologist: There are a little over 3 months left until the end of the pandemic




Ilaria Capua


“We are heading towards the end of the pandemic.” This was stated by the Italian luminary in virology Ilaria Capua in an interview with the most authoritative program “Porta-a-porta” on the Italian state television RAI1.

As early as March 2020, at the very beginning of the global coronavirus occupation, she predicted that it would take about two years and the infection would pass through at least 300,000,000 – 350,000,000 people, something like 5% of the world’s population, to deal with it. We are currently exceeding the limit of 250 million cases, and the speed at which they move is about 500,000 per day, ie. there are 3 or a little more months until Day X.

“After that, the virus will become endemic, but it will no longer be scary, because we are not facing it with our bare hands – after the vaccines come pills, sprays and more. effective ways to prevent it, ”continued Professor Capua, given that he will stay with us forever.

“Both my husband and I set the 3rd dose and I want to make it clear to all people who believe in conspiracy theories: I am a virologist, there is no doubt that many vaccination campaigns are done with more doses.

I also want to reassure people who do not understand about viruses and infections, which I have been dealing with all my life: very soon there will be a bivalent vaccine available to everyone – both coronavirus and flu, and there is nothing scary about it, on the contrary, I personally I recommend it, “says the Italian luminary.

Capua is known for predicting a huge pandemic years ago and warning that serious action must be taken because health systems are not prepared to deal with it, as it did. Because of her courage, she had not only received threats to her life, which forced her to move from her native Italy to the United States, but they also tried to give her a prosecutor’s number and hurt her as a media authority.

“It is very important to learn two things from the coronavirus pandemic:
1. We must have an active attitude to our health, ie. not to expect someone to follow us and tell us what to do, but for us to complain about how dissatisfied we are with him, because everyone just has to take care to take care of these things.

2. We should not for a moment underestimate the development, condition and staff of health systems in all countries if we do not want to
we are facing even more serious challenges and new, more terrible pandemics, “said the respected Italian scientist.
