The first updated vaccines against the
more recent Omicron sub-variants of the COVID-19 virus will
arrive in Italy in 10 days time, Health Minister Roberto
Speranza said Thursday.
Speranza said the European Medicines Agency (EMA) will give the
green light for the new jabs later Thursday and Italian drugs
authority AIFA will follow suit on September 5.
"I think the first supplies will arrive around the 10th of
September," he said on TV.
