Clowns and Gadgets, Lazio Pediatrics Campaign

Clowns, designated areas, and tools to welcome the little ones and make vaccinations live like a game. Lazio is preparing for a vaccination campaign for the age group 5-11 years. Reservations will open on December 13 and 78 centers will be established across all ASLs in the region. There will be pediatricians, doctors, nurses and even clowns to comfort the kids. “In Lazio we are ready to leave after Aifa’s approval – confirmed Commissioner Alessio D’Amato, announcing the opening of reservations from 13 -. Vaccinations can be booked on the regional portal in a special section represented by the logo designed by two children Chiara and Valerio from the Bambino Gesu Children’s Hospital in Rome. ” The commissioner asked ASL “maximum attention to receive youngsters.

Vaccination for them – he said – should be a party and a game.” The campaign “And now yes we can play freely” began on social media with the first FAQ by Children’s Hospital in Bambino Gesu with information pills for families. A media initiative aimed at reassuring parents about the safety and efficacy of vaccines for children and to combat fake news. “We secure the young and guarantee them a social life,” D’Amato stressed. D’Amato told ANSA: “Since the beginning of the epidemic at the country level, according to official data, there have been 36 deaths in children’s age. A very small number compared to the general population, but in any case an element that should be evaluated with great interest: on the one hand this vaccine serves to make children safe On the other hand, to restore social spaces because unfortunately there is an ‘incidence’ of infection that increases dramatically and when you are positive, you have to quarantine, you have to stay at home away from school and this is an important component for the psycho-physical well-being of children.”
