The Italian Football Federation is addressing an important issue. An organization-appointed commission for medical purposes is trying to assess the possibilities of vaccinating every player in the country against the coronavirus. This proposal was submitted to the federation by the Italian Players Association. "Considering what we have experienced over the last ten months, there is no other alternative. We believe it is a good idea to vaccinate all professional footballers. I agree with 'Lega Pro' president Francesco Ghirelli that athletes should be required to use this tool against the virus," explained federation representative Francesco Braconaro.
