Italy's COVID-19 admissions, whether
to general wards or into ICUs, rose 39.7% in the last week in a
"sudden and sharp reversal of the trend", hospital group FIASO
said Wednesday.
They were above all unvaccinated elderly people or elderly who
have not had the fourth dose of the vaccine, said the October 4
report from the sentinel hospitals of FIASO, which stands for
Federation of Hospital and Health Firms.
A week previously, it said, admissions had risen by just 5%, all
patients with COVID, in hospital for other pathologies, and who
tested positive in a swab.
