"The measure we took today during the Council of Ministers is to bring forward the expiry of the vaccination obligation for health professionals to November 1 - said Orazio Schillaci, Minister of Health, in a press conference at Palazzo Chigi on 31 October -. First of all, because today the epidemiological picture has changed compared to when the measure was taken. In particular, the data we have in our possession tell us that the impact on hospitals continues to be limited: there is a stabilization and a decrease in the incidence of cases of infections and a stabilization of the occupancy rate of beds in medical and medical areas. of places in intensive care ".
" To this is added a serious shortage of medical and health personnel in our hospitals, a shortage that derives from obviously wrong programming in the last 10 years with the increasingly frequent recourse to doctors immigrants or to so-called 'token' doctors - said the minister -. We strongly believe that putting these doctors and health workers back to work in our facilities serves to counteract the shortage that is registered in the area. This is important to guarantee the right to health, enshrined in article 32 of our constitution ”.
