Antonio Bassolino, candidate for mayor of Naples, was vaccinated today at the vaccination center of the Mostra d'Oltremare in Naples.

The former governor himself announced this in a post on his personal Facebook page. "My turn has arrived, and so I just got the AstraZeneca vaccine at the Mostra d'Oltremare, as was my right and duty," Bassolino wrote.

But in the meantime, queues were recorded at the Mostra d'Oltremare due to the refusal of many citizens called for the administration of AstraZeneca. Many of the over-70s, called today, tried to convince the health personnel to get the Pfizer dose instead of AstraZeneca, even though they were not part of the "fragile" category. The director of the ASL Napoli 1 Ciro Verdoliva had to go in person to Fuorigrotta for an inspection and try to understand what was happening. In the 27 vaccination boxes, doctors and operators were forced to waste an average of 10-15 minutes just to convince people to be administered AstraZeneca. Many presented medical certificates claiming to have pathologies that prevent them from receiving the English vaccine.

"It is urgent that the Government immediately clarify the usability of the AstraZeneca vaccine. The communication disaster and the decisions of other countries are causing a collapse in the administration of this vaccine. We invite the Government to decide immediately on the usability of AstraZeneca to avoid dramatic blocks in the administration". This is what the President of the Campania region Vincenzo De Luca. “This situation – De Luca emphasizes – makes it even more urgent for the AIFA control authority to make a statement on the Sputnik vaccine. It is in Italy’s interest not to waste a minute of time. Every day lost in the evaluation of this vaccine is an act of irresponsibility towards the country”.
