“What are the demographics of the deaths in Italy? Pre-existing conditions, etc.”
—
It’s not demographics, but just simple numbers. Too many people needing care at once exhausts and depletes the health system. Then more come in. You run out of just about everything, including medical staff.
but there are only 17,660 cases or there around sick in italy. how could that be taking any system? This is the virus where no one is sick and there are two of them. one that is deadly and the other that is what Tom Hanks has mild cold symptoms. maybe there are more than one actual virus.
