Medical clinic treating people injured by COVID shot opens in Italy

The clinic was opened by a group of doctors and health workers who
were recently reinstated to their positions after newly-elected Prime
Minister Giorgia Meloni's government removed discriminatory
legislation that barred vaccine-free Italians from working
in healthcare.
An Italian medical rights group celebrated the clinic as "helpful"
and "welcoming," but a left-wing political party from Tuscany has
attempted to pressure the mayor of Lucca to publicly disavow the
clinic seeking to help heal those suffering from COVID vaccine
injuries.
The local Partito Democratico (Democratic Party) released a statement
saying "we believe the mayor needs to take a position, and distance
himself from what is happening on this front in our city."
The statement was made even after the party admitted that the group
who started the clinic did so with the intention of helping the
vaccine-injured, and that the group also wanted doctors to have
freedom of conscience protections when practicing medicine.
Italy has flipped the script on COVID restrictions since the election
of Meloni, who has admitted that Italy had the "most restrictive
anti-COVID measures in the entire Western world," but was still
"among the countries with the highest numbers of deaths and
infections."
She vowed that her government "will not replicate that pattern
in any way," promising to never "limit fundamental freedoms."
Under previous Prime Minister Mario Draghi, the then left-wing
government had enacted severe measures against Italians who chose
not to take the COVID jab, restricting them from many aspects
of public life under the guise of the "Super Green Pass."
Under the restrictions, all Italians were required to be jabbed
or provide proof that they had previously recovered from COVID
in order to work, and all those over 50 years old had to be
vaccinated or they would be fined by the government on a monthly
basis.
In response, Italians protested in massive numbers, and it is
believed that support swelled for the populist Meloni as a result
of her opposition to such measures.
