It has 95.35% more fatalities than the second place nation, and 8.7358
times more deaths than the third place nation.
That third place nation, is South Korea.
At 11:13 PST Italy had declared 9,172 cases to South Korea's 7,478.
That's not enough to account for this massive fatality discrepancy.
It almost sounds as if Italy is treating this disease with something
that is costing lives.
Lot of Chinese in Italy.
Italy has the 5th highest median age at 46.5 years (2018 estimate)
The US is 61st with a median age of 38.5 tears. (2018 estimate)
Our median age is 8 years younger than theirs.
That might impact the numbers - they are an older population.
“ It almost sounds as if Italy is treating this disease with something

Maybe the Mafia is using this as an opportunity to settle some old scores.
Ar15 forums has a post from local that they are NOT treating people over 65 and people with health issues. Health system is Overwhelmed.
Same thing that we will be dealing with in 30 days.
Don’t be shocked if socialized medicine plays a hand in this; I wouldn’t be shocked if medical staff leave halfway through a procedure if it is time for them to “clock out”. Remember when all those people died in the heatwave in Europe in 2003? It was August - people had to go on holiday, needs of the people be damned.
