Rise in Fatalities Among Italian Police Officers Following Vaccination Prompts Union Concerns
The Italian Police Unions have raised concerns over a significant increase in sudden deaths among state police officers, pointing towards an "exponential increase in sudden deaths from diseases." The Italian Police Union (OSA) and the Penitentiary Police Union have been at the forefront of this alarm, emphasising their role in serving and protecting the public.
In a formal appeal to the Ministry of the Interior, the Secretary-General of the Italian Police Union, Antonio Porto, highlighted the increasing number of sudden deaths among police officers. Since then, the Ministry has initiated investigations and preventive health measures for police personnel.
Aldo Di Giacomo, Secretary-General of the Penitentiary Police Union, reported a 200% increase in sudden deaths among penitentiary police officers in the last 13 months compared to previous years. The union's disclosure includes a video link with subtitles for further information.
In the last year, nearly 50 officers have died suddenly, according to the unions. This concerning situation was also brought to light by journalist and TV presenter Karina Michelin on January 20, 2023.
The unions believe there may be a link between these incidents and COVID-19 vaccinations. Antonio Porto, Secretary-General of the Italian Police Union, stated that seven officers have died suddenly in the last month alone. The unions are collectively confronting a deeply concerning trend of sudden deaths among officers.
The need for action, transparency, data, and the welfare of the officers is at the forefront of the Italian police unions' urgent inquiry. The OSA is calling for transparency and an exhaustive inquiry into these developments. The Italian Penitentiary Police Union has also expressed concern over the absence of official data on these incidents.
The Italian Police Unions continue to press the authorities for an investigation to uncover the truth behind these incidents. They are awaiting a response from the government regarding their demand for an investigation into the sudden deaths among their members. The unions hope that this investigation will provide answers and protection for their own ranks, ensuring the safety and well-being of those who serve and protect the public.
