The armed forces of Italy.
Coerced jabs
On 1 March 2021, Prime Minister Mario Draghi appointed Army General Francesco Paolo Figliuolo also Extraordinary Commissioner for the COVID-19 Emergency, replacing Domenico Arcuri.[1] Like officers in many other countries in charge of this (Germany, Australia...), Figliuolo had a past with the ISAF occupation force in Afghanistan.[2]
The management of the logistics chain was already the hands of the armed forces, which in December 2020 decided on the military airport of Pratica di Mare, near Rome, as the national vaccine management and sorting hub. Figliuolo finished on 31 March 2022. Under his command, Italy introduced vaccine passports[3], mandatory jabs for everyone over the age of 50[4], and many other restrictions in order to coerce the injections.
