Poor Italy.


Looks like they're gonna come out of this worst out of everybody including China! Btw-does anyone else find it suspicious the numbers China is reporting? They seem to be on a plateau. I don't know if I should put faith into a communist, dictator country and what numbers they're reporting. This is the site I'm looking at: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/china/

I saw a sad photo of older Italians lying in a huge room made into a makeshift hospital.The are alone without their families and if they die, it will be alone. I read people over a certain age aren't given respirators because there aren't enough.

reply

Basically left 4 dead.

I think Italy is the only hard-hit country go actully tell the world what's going on.

I read hospitals are having to pay 11K for a little respirator valve. A engineer at one hospital jumped in and 3D printed them for $1 each. They are keeping 10 people alive that most likely the hospital wouldn't have.

I find the numbers China is reporting suspicious too. It went from an insane high number, to an increase of +1. Today, they announced no new cases. I think they're lying because there's already a target on their back and they want everyone to think everything is under control.

reply

I'm very suspicious about their reporting too. You're telling me a country of over a billion people with really no active new cases & very little deaths. Yet, Italy (60 million), they already surpassed China in terms of deaths and new cases. Hmmm. Something seems fishy.

Italians have a huge skepticism when it comes to government. I heard this constantly from my father in law.

reply

Well, they need to obey their government during these times.

reply

The government is considered a joke over there. It changes every 6 months and people don't pay taxes.

reply

Government is considered a joke everywhere.

no stop to the deaths
