Italy overtakes China as the country with the most Coronavirus deaths

Recommended Posts

Italy has overtaken China as the country with most coronavirus-related deaths, registering 3,405 dead, a rise of 427 on the day before.

Thursday’s figure represented a slight improvement on the day before, when Italy recorded 475 deaths - the most reported by any country in a single day since the start of the outbreak.

However, the total number of cases in Italy rose to 41,035 from a previous 35,713, up 14.9%, a faster rate of growth than seen over the last three days, the Civil Protection Agency said.

Some 3,245 people have died in China since the virus first emerged there late last year. Italy’s outbreak came to light in the north of the country on 21 February.

In recent weeks, as the situation in Italy has darkened, the Italian Government has taken drastic steps to attempt to curb the economic devastation. Rapidly becoming known as the "Italian Cure", the county's borders are closed, all forms of business are shut down, save for grocery stores and pharmacies. A plethora of taxes and social service payments have been suspended. Rents and mortgages have been halted or lowered until further notice. Companies and firms within Italy are not legally allowed to layoff employees without "justifiable, objective reasons" until May. 

With leaders around the world faced with the prospect of economic ruin, or the deaths of millions, Italy's example offers a way forward.

I wouldn’t believe China and Iran if they told me water is wet.
