Naples. In many squares and in many pharmacies, numerous vaccinations have taken place. The trend of infections and the mandatory nature of the Green Passes, seem to further encourage the Neapolitan people to take part in the vaccination campaign.

However, regarding the latter, there are still strong conflicting opinions. The Government, despite the Green Pass requirement for access to indoor venues such as restaurants and museums, has made it possible to do so from 15 October 2021. necessary the pass for all public and private workersBoth employers and workers will be subjected to harsh economic sanctions ranging from 400 to 1500 euros, if they are found not to have them.

“I am against the Green Pass but I am in favor of the vaccine,” says a worker from the historic center of Naples. The statement, which may seem contradictory, fully expresses one of the most common states of mind among Neapolitan citizens, that is, being in favor of vaccination, but being against the restrictions imposed by Government and linked to the Green Pass.

In fact, another young Neapolitan worker declared instead that he was against the vaccine, and therefore had not undergone any inoculation. He stated that undergo an antigen swab every 48 hours against him, and went on to say that if he were to test positive for Covid, he would not be entitled to any compensation for sickness benefits.
