Italy Covid19
Why is Italy's spread so fast and death rate exceptionally high at 8%?

Re: Italy Covid19
They love eating and drinking in large groups. Italy has the highest percentage of elderly in the EU. Therefore more are susceptible to the virus. Also affecting a lot of younger ones as well, but unsure what is causing that aside from their refusal to use safe distancing as requested.
Life isn't about avoiding the bruises. It's about collecting the scars to prove we showed up for it!

Also an early start to their tourism season.

You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA

Re: Italy Covid19
Yeah, I think they have an ageing population hence the higher percentage of people catching the virus and succumbing to it. It seems the hospitals are overwhelmed by the large numbers.
