SOUNDBITES AND TRANSLATIONS:

1.- SALVATORE

They already ask you for your covid passport everywhere, where we go, on the bus, at the station, to go to eat, to enter any place, they ask for it. It is great for us, and we have to it because we work and without the QR they do not let us work and they do not pay you. When we were locked up for 2 months, we wanted the vaccine, we are in favor of the vaccine, even if it is mandatory from 50 upwards it is perfect because it covers everyone. We have taken the 3rd dose, and when the 4th vaccine comes, we will get it.

2.- TERESA: I very much agree with the vaccine for those over 50 years old, I have even already taken the 3rd dose, it needs to be done, because we are in a very ugly time, we cannot let it pass, you have to be careful and vaccinate yourself.
