Third dose, Clementi: “It must be done, immunity decreases over time”

“I am in favor of the third dose of” Covid vaccine “because there are many elements that tell us that the vaccine’s immune coverage decreases over time and this is certainly not good for frail people, the elderly and those with comorbidities “. Massimo Clementi, director of the Laboratory of Microbiology and Virology of the San Raffaele hospital in Milan and lecturer at the Vita-Salute University. “Covid infections of vaccinated elderly are reported in RSAs – he observes – and there is yesterday’s figure of zero vaccinated patients in intensive care in Lombardy. The third dose will have to be done”.

“I agree with the Italian pediatricians, who have already expressed themselves in favor, the vaccine at the age group 12-15 must be done. If we look at the alarms on myocarditis after immunization, we are talking about 1 case in 100 thousand vaccinated. Events rare and never serious. The English ones are prudent assessments and it is possible that it is only a momentary stop as they have already done in the past “, he says, commenting on the choice of Great Britain not to opt for mass vaccination for children between 12 and 15 years.
