December 16, 2020
"The distribution of covid-19 vaccines - explained the president of Anama -- will presumably start already january 2021 and in just three months 30 million doses of vaccine. It is clear that this will require an extraordinary effort for the air freight sector and coordination between the actors in the supply chain: carriers, freight forwarders, airport hub and hub operators logistics and the pharmaceutical sector. The constitution of the joint table is the concrete sign that the system Italy is there and that operators are ready to face this historic challenge by putting at the service of the country its know-how. As Albertini pointed out, Italy is the second largest European country by volume of exports of pharma products: we have, therefore, the experience and skills to manage storage networks and distribution of vaccines.'
