ASTRAZENECA VACCINE: SECOND DOSE in the HEART of the SUMMER, BOOM of CANCELLATIONS due to HOLIDAYS. Updates
Boom of CANCELLATIONS for the second RECALL of the VACCINE in the SummerFor those who got vaccinated in April, especially between the second and third decade, the second booster of the AstraZeneca vaccine is expected in estate, approximately between July and August. And even those who get vaccinated in June will run the “risk” of being recalled in the heart of August.
This would mean, as also reported by the newspaper Republic, forcing a person to stay in the city in scorching heat to complete the cycle vaccination or, even worse, seeing appointments skipped with the risk that the vaccination campaign slows down just as the most fragile ones are about to complete. For this reason a boom of cancellations.
The staff of the special commissioner for the emergency Francesco Paolo Figliuolo is perfectly aware of the unknown summer. “We are not neglecting this risk at all but a possible solution will be coordinated with the Ministry of Health. Our priority remains to protect the vulnerable and the elderly, we will address any problems”, the general said.
In short, the booking algorithm must also take this into account and consider that in many cases second injections cannot be postponed beyond certain times. Nor will vaccinations be suspended for holidays. Cards in hand, we must find a way to do not dampen the surge in the vaccination campaign brought by the arrival of 45 million vials by June (double those received from December to March). “General Figliuolo and engineer Curcio reassured me about that date which is the end of June for the vaccination of all over 60s, which is the goal that will allow us to be more relaxed because we will no longer have intensive care and clogged COVID departments “, guaranteed the president of Anci and mayor of Bari Antonio Decaro.
In any case, the campaign proceeds at a more or less fluctuating pace. By early May the quota of the much coveted should be reached 500 thousand doses per day. Not only that, also the problem of stocks seems to be solved, running out in several regions and fundamental for the second dose.
