“The decision of the third dose” of Covid vaccine at all “is a bit of a decision ‘all like this and that’s okay'”. The virologist Massimo Galli, head of Infectious Diseases at the Sacco hospital in Milan, remains cautious on the need for a booster for everyone, even if this is now the direction. “At the end of the day, the likelihood” of a recall extended to all, he tells ‘L’Aria che tira’ on La7, it seems to me “is increasing and is now high, in the sense that a whole series of data at an international level should be in that direction. In reality – however, the specialist underlines – I believe that it is still important to distinguish with regard to some specific contexts. That it is appropriate for the most fragile people and for people with problems, with a less efficient immune system, is a given in fact – says Galli – even if there too – he remarks – there is a very marked individual variability in the response “.
“We are dealing with vaccines that, it is now known – remembers the infectious specialist – are able, and maintain over time for quite a long time the ability to do so, not to take you to the hospital, to resuscitation or worse. But they are not able to do so. to avoid the infection. This inability is the one that comes to show more quickly, even if it is not a quick thing, but it still takes, in most cases, months to occur “. So “what you see is an increase in infections. The doctors were vaccinated first. I had the first dose on December 27 and having been vaccinated among the first – reasons Galli – I will probably also be among the first to have a reduction defense capacity in regards to infection. I hope just not as quickly as my ability instead of avoiding severe infection. “
