Until 31 December 2022 the vaccination obligation remains with the suspension from work for health professionals and workers in hospitals and nursing homes.

Fourth dose of vaccine
In this regard, the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, so he expressed himself. "At this time there is no scientific evidence to tell us that the fourth dose of the vaccine is needed for everyone. No country in the world and in Europe is imagining the fourth dose for everyone. We started with the frail and in these hours we are evaluating the hypothesis of a fourth dose for more advanced generations. This will require further study but it is something we are preparing for. We will be ready, the doses are already available, but we have to wait for the basis of scientific evidence, which at this moment does not yet exist ”.
