Coronavirus updates on Monday 20 December
We are moving towards a reduction in the validity of the Green pass. They also discuss the hypothesis of a tampon for the vaccinated to attend the events and the obligation to wear masks outdoors. The Minister of Health Roberto Speranza: No decision has yet been made. After the lockdown in the Netherlands, Denmark closes cinemas and theaters. New record of infections in New York (more than 22 thousand in one day): the mayor’s appeal to the president Joe Biden. The latest bulletin (December 19) records 24,259 new cases and 97 deaths in our country.
8.32 am – THE POINT ON VACCINES IN ITALY: 14.8 million calls, over 73 thousand first doses for children
I am 105,743,083 doses of vaccine administered so far in Italy, 95.5 percent of those delivered equal to 110,719,340. The people who have completed the vaccination cycle are 46,085,894 (85.33 percent of the population over 12). what emerges from the bulletin on the progress of the vaccination campaign, updated at 6.17 today. 14,884,647 booster doses were then administered to 71.79 per cent of the population potentially subject to such administrations. 47,834,551 people have received at least one dose of the vaccine, equal to 88.57 percent of the over 12 population. 27 percent of the population over 12.
8.18 am – Austria, from today entry only with booster or 2-G Plus
From today the entrance in Austria allowed only to people who have received the third dose of the vaccine, the so-called booster, or to those who fall under the 2-G Plus rule, i.e. to be vaccinated or cured in the last six months by adding a negative molecular buffer (Pcr) . The new measures taken by the Vienna government are aimed at containing the Omicron variant of the coronavirus. People who do not present the certificate of a molecular swab upon entering the country will be immediately quarantined. The measure will be stopped only when a negative molecular buffer is obtained. The measures will not affect pregnant women and people who cannot be vaccinated for health reasons obviously after demonstrating a certificate.
7.34 – D’Amato, now the government introduces the vaccination obligation
The government must introduce the vaccination obligation. In Lazio, for example, there are still 400,000 unvaccinated people. So the Lazio health councilor, Alessio D’Amato, in an interview with The messenger. They may seem small compared to a population of nearly 6 million. But in absolute terms a very high number that puts the other inhabitants at risk – he explains – we inject 2 thousand first doses every day and not a little. But we have done everything to convince them and now the only way to eradicate this hard core is the obligation to vaccinate. This is why I ask the executive to introduce it throughout the national territory.
