“The size of Lombardy is 9,200 Square Miles. That’s pretty small. It is almost exactly the size of Vermont.
Do you think its newsworthy if 1,000 people died from ANYTHING in Vermont? In three weeks?
Would that catch your eye?
Just curious”
Not addressed to me. Shame I need to point this out. Lombardy population 10 MILLION, Vermont 625 THOUSAND. I think the PC answer is Lombardy has a serious social distance problem that Vermont doesn’t. As well as average age, Italy 45 years, USA 38 years. I’m not minimizing this virus, but it should be fact based.
Ok. Fair enough.
