Because now Draghi and Macron must be vaccinated with Astrazeneca

Because now Draghi and Macron must be vaccinated with Astrazeneca

Macron and Draghi should be the first to encourage their compatriots by getting the Astrazeneca vaccine injected. The italics of the political notist Francesco Damato

If indeed AstraZeneca, the anti-Covid vaccine also suspended in Italy pending assessments on the deaths that occurred after a few administrations, risks becoming "the black swan" for Europe, evoked by someone because it has practically put the campaign in crisis of prevention by sowing mistrust, there is only one way – let's face it – for the two community leaders to succeed in their purpose, having agreed on the resumption of administrations immediately after the green light expected for tomorrow by EMA, the competent agency for scientific evaluation of the problem.

They should be the first to encourage their compatriots by getting the vaccine injected. It is useless to go around it. This is the first so-called communication problem.

In the United States, then President Donald Trump had the vaccine he had bet on in the fight against Covid injected.

Against the hypothesis of a vaccination of Macron and Draghi with AstraZeneca as an example for their compatriots and, more generally, for the Europeans threatened – I repeat – by the alleged "black swan", the usual demagogic trap – demagogic at least as well as the hypothesis of the example itself – of which not only populists but also anti-populists are capable of being trapped. It is the paradoxical trap of "each one waiting for his turn", even in spite of common sense.

Draghi himself recently indicated as an example the scruple with which the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella, by going in person to the Roman hospital Spallanzani, was vaccinated on the threshold, let's say, of the regulatory 80 years, which he will turn on 23 July next.

The prime minister only turned 73 on 3 September. Not to mention, for France, Emmanuel Macron , who turned only 43 last December.

Without wanting to improvise a special edition of "Seriously", I would like to wish, once the practicability of AstraZeneca is unlocked, a race to Palazzo Chigi by that good man…. Son of the general of the Army Corps of the Alpine troops, still fresh from the appointment as extraordinary commissioner of the pandemic emergency, to have a dose of that vaccine injected by military doctors and nurses to a Draghi willing to skip the shift in the best interest of the country.

That Draghi himself was called to govern by the head of state with a lot of trust then regularly granted to him by Parliament. With such a burden on his shoulders, the Prime Minister will also have the right and duty to protect himself and protect us.
