Ex-premier and former Democratic
Party (PD) leader Matteo Renzi on Wednesday called the leaders
of the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement (M5S) "improvised" and
"devoid of scientific ethics" in their criticism of vaccines.
"I say it loud and clear: I believe in science, not in
sorcerer's apprentices," said Renzi, stressing "I trust the
opinions of doctors, not the algorithms of the (M5S) spokesmen.
I follow the thought of (Rita) Levi Montalcini and (Umberto)
Veronesi, not (M5S) leader Beppe Grillo and his ideas on
mammographs". Grillo and his M5S have frequently appeared to
side with vaccine skeptics who are seen as encouraging Italians
not to get their kids vaccinated.
