S. By mid december. Once approved, distribution will become the focus and theres a mixed response from americans as to whether or not they will get the shot. Of course. Yeah, probably soon as possible. And not really just, i dont even get a flu shot myself just because im out means system that been really good. How a yes or no. And not personally feel like i feel like its there by his own choice. You know, because not everybody agrees with vaccines, but experts dont want people getting too excited.

This doctor works in another hospital in the region, out of fear for his job. He doesnt want to show his face, he says that many untrained doctors and nurses have to fill in that or we cant assist all people in the probable way. Even if we try. Were also worried about being infected. Our main issue is the lack of hospital beds and personnel this doctor simona says, another problem. Italy has cut down healthcare spending over the last decades. There not enough Family Doctors, hospitals have been privatized every imagine, see room and companions historically overwhelmed by too much work. And Family Doctors are too busy to take care of covidien, 1000 patients. Its the least self, and naples in particular are economically far worse off the richer north of the country. Mario cope better supports the left wing majority in naples city council. It needs that local and regional authorities could have maybe avoided the crisis if they communicated better robot demands. And we are probably, if we do united our voices. When we requested more doctors, we would have gotten more and appear more trustworthy.
