Professor Galli on "Mattino Cinque": "Second doses of Astrazeneca perhaps unnecessary"
Galli: "More updated vaccines likely in autumn"
Professor Massimo Galli, director of the Infectious Diseases Clinic of the Sacco di Hospital Milano, today - Tuesday 15 June - he spoke via audio-video connection to "Mattino Cinque".
To Francesco Vecchi, the clinician declared:
«The protective effect of a single dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine, according to studies, gives us a certain prospect of safety. And, above all, it gives it to us if at the single dose it is documented that the person had a significant antibody response."
«Perhaps, many second doses of AstraZeneca are not necessary at this moment: many of the people who have had the first dose do not strictly need the second».
"It is likely that next autumn we will have to tackle the Covid problem with more up-to-date vaccines."
