“Vaccination is definitive, but when it is properly applied”, remarked the specialist about the decrease in immunity against covid that is reflected in the increase in positive cases. This outbreak had been predicted for the end of the year in America, because the same situation had been recorded on the European continent a few months earlier.
Pizzi explained that, in terms of coverage against covid, 52% of the country applied the third dose, and only 18% received the fourth dose or second booster. “If with four doses you avoid hospitalization and death, it means that there is still a long way to go to achieve it,” he analyzed, and said that current deaths from the disease occur mainly in “people who do not have a complete scheme, or who They got it recently and they didn’t give the vaccine time to assemble the antibodies, or they don’t have the vaccine directly.”
“We know the enemy, we know how to defend ourselves. Two huge groups of vaccines were defeated because they were not placed or because people did not come, so there is something that is failing in society. We do not have to be indifferent,” reflected the doctor. “The ideal thing to avoid hospitalization and not die is four doses, because the antibodies are balanced. And anyone who is over 50 today, with or without a previous disease, has to get the fifthbecause this dose is to prolong the defense over time,” he remarked.
“Until next year we have the bivalent vaccine that will last a year, this must be done. It is essential to be sure. Today we know the enemy and we know how to defend ourselves, we do not have to be indifferent,” he concluded.
