If Ghislieri is right, who will buffer 20 million Italians without a third dose?

A brief reasoning: Alessandra Ghislieri recently conducted a survey which showed that the Italians willing to take the third dose are 65% of the population. A high number, but below the current 85% and which leaves not a small no-vax minority out, as they want us to believe, but as many as 20 million fellow citizens in the need to have swabs every two days to be able to go to work, provided that you want to confirm the use of this tool only to those who follow the booster doses, third, fourth etc, in a complete way. So the number of people who should tampon is even likely to quintuple compared to the current one: from 3.5 million who take the test every two days, to about 18-20 million, that is about 10 million a day. The system of pharmacies and public test centers is already insufficient and in crisis at the moment, how can it ever withstand an even more dramatic situation? Thinking of testing 18-20 million citizens every two days is a utopia that can only find a home in the minds of Speranza and the CTS.

The possible solutions are as follows:

  • making the vaccine compulsory, but exposing oneself to a strong resentment of a non-secondary segment of the population and confirming the idea of ​​abuse;
  • continue to force the Green Pass in the hope of inducing more Italians at the third dose, but creating very strong social tensions and enormous inconvenience;
  • leave the current two-dose regime, which would make the Covid-pass perfectly useless, given the very rapid drop in coverage of the current vaccines in use. Practically, the protection would be reduced to a joke, especially for infections. In Italy, governments are quite used to making a fool of themselves;
  • cancel the whole system of the Green pass that would only risk imploding, with enormous inconvenience for all citizens, or transform it profoundly by admitting home self-tests.

What will be the choice of the government we will see soon. because now we are running out and cases are increasing among the vaccinated. The most obvious choice would be the last one, also in view of the arrival of the treatments, but we fear that the mental rigidity of our politics and bureaucracy cannot reach us. At that point we will have a truly explosive mix.
