With the aim of speeding up the national vaccination campaign against Covid-19, the Unipol Group prepared a vaccine plan for all employees of the Unipol Group, their family members, agents and agency employees in coordination with the applicable national and regional institutions.

This is the first vaccine plan developed by a company to cover the entire national territory.

Today, Letizia Moratti, Deputy President and Welfare Councillor for the Lombardy Region, and Carlo Cimbri, Chief Executive Officer and Group CEO of Unipol Gruppo, opened the first corporate vaccine hub in Milan, set up by the Unipol Group in via de Castillia 23. Twenty vaccine centres were set up in Lombardy and two hubs in Milan (in via dei Missaglia 97 and the one in via De Castillia) for potential uptake by about 300 thousand people. The two Milan hubs have an estimated capacity of about 2,000 vaccines daily.

This initiative was organised by UniSalute and is also aimed at leading Italian businesses - companies, banks or healthcare funds who have requested it - to hasten the relaunch of our country. It was developed in coordination with the Extraordinary Commissioner’s Unit led by General Francesco Paolo Figliuolo, the Extraordinary Commissioner for the implementation and coordination of measures to reduce and tackle the Covid-19 emergency and carry out the vaccination campaign; it offers an additional opportunity to the vaccination plans organised by the regional health authorities (ASL) to support the business world in the organisation and provision of Covid-19 vaccines to their employees.
