The sentences were imposed by an Italian court which is independent of the Italian Government. We understand all seven individuals will appeal against the sentence.
The Government have not made a formal assessment of how this case might affect the ability and willingness of the international scientific community to provide advice to governments but the Minister for Europe, my right honourable friend the Member for Aylesbury (Mr Lidington), has expressed to the Italian Government our concern about the potential impact of the case.

In line with the risk assessment at the time, a cohort of front-line health workers was
vaccinated in 2005 to deal with any initial suspected or confirmed cases of smallpox should it occur. The cohort comprised a total of 516 vaccinated personnel of whom 147 were doctors, 164 were nurses, 100 were ambulance staff, 32 were scientists and 73 held other related healthcare occupations. All those vaccinated were carefully screened and monitored and none had adverse complications that required vaccinia immunoglobulin.
The Home Office has confirmed that since 2005 it has not commissioned a vaccination programme against smallpox for police emergency responders. The department’s smallpox policy is currently under review.
