In Caserta the experimentation of the vaccine made in Italy: the writer Carofiglio exceptional testimonial
The experimentation of Caserta is underway Reithera, the vaccine made in Italy. This morning the administrations of the 'phase 2' of the trial also began at Sant'Anna and San Sebastiano. Exceptional testimonial Gianrico carofiglio, writer, former magistrate and former senator.
“It all happened by chance, a few weeks ago, while I was talking to an old friend of mine, Professor Paolo Maggi (university professor and director of the Infectious Diseases unit at Caserta hospital and one of the “principal investigators” of the trial).
He explained to me that they were looking for volunteers and it seemed natural to say: here I am – Carofiglio explained in an interview with La Repubblica – It was because, in a period like this, if you speak, if you expose yourself, in a world that lives on words, there come moments when you have to show that you believe in what you say. The English language has a very beautiful expression: “skin in the game”. Here, if the opportunity arises you have to bear witness to what you believe in, you have to put your skin in the game. This was my opportunity: participating in the experiment seemed to me to be a political act”.
