PUSH HARDER!! Wham-Bam Wuhan Scam!

Coffins awaiting burial are lining up in churches and the corpses of those who died at home are being kept in sealed-off rooms for days as funeral services struggle to cope in Bergamo, the Italian province hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic.
As of Wednesday, Covid-19 had killed 2,978 across Italy, all buried or cremated without ceremony. Those who die in hospital do so alone, with their belongings left in bags beside coffins before being collected by funeral workers.
...There are about 80 funeral companies across Bergamo, each receiving dozens of calls an hour. A shortage of coffins as providers struggle to keep up with demand and funeral workers becoming infected with the virus are also hampering preparations.
...Stella, a teacher in Bergamo, shared the story of one of the deceased with the Guardian. “Yesterday, an 88-year-old man died,” she said. “He’d had a fever for a few days. There was no way to call an ambulance because the line was always busy. He died alone in his room. The ambulance arrived an hour later. Obviously, nothing could be done. And since no coffins were available in Bergamo, they left him on the bed and sealed his room to keep his relatives from entering until a coffin could be found.”
Adding to the torment is the fact that relatives cannot visit their loved ones in hospital, or give them proper funerals.
“Usually you would be able to dress them and they would stay one night in the family home. None of this is happening,” said Alessandro, whose 74-year-old uncle died in Codogno, the Lombardy town where the outbreak began. “You can’t even see them to say goodbye, this is the most devastating part.”

Awful :(
I think you have the wrong thread...
While empathizing with those who've lost loved ones, this quote is hyperbolic bullshit.
While this shows what is at stake (and what might be in store for the NY/NJ megalopolis) this does not justify the virtual shredding of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Amendments!
I’ll second that.
Thanks. I certainly did and am asking the moderator to pull the post.
Italy is dealing with a terrible situation, but 2,978 would not be a generation even in one of the cities most affected.
The over 80 years old generation? Sad for those personally affected but I doubt that is really going to impact society at large.
Less than 4,000 people is a “generation” in Italy?
We’ve all done it.

Agreed. It is devastating to the country and to families and friends. It is a small portion of living individuals in the generations affected. Maybe .2% of the elderly in a country of 50 million?
World War I killed a generation. Spanish Flu killed a generation. World War II killed a generation.
So far the chicom bat flu has killed fewer than Korea and ‘Nam. A bit of hyperbole here.
A generation has never been born. The birthrate in Italy is 1.3 births per woman(2016).
Age structure
0-14 years: 13.6%
15-24 years: 9.61%
25-54 years: 41.82%
55-64 years: 13.29%
65 years and over: 21.69%
It was said that one of the charms of Italy was all the children running around in the towns, but now the towns are quiet and devoid of children.
That is so heartbreaking. My prayers for the people of Italy.
This is such over the top BS. Italy has lost 3,405 people to coronavirus. That’s hardly a “generation”.
“Wham-Bam Wuhan Scam!”
Nicely put! It’s a scam. I fear for the human race since it was ridiculously EASY to gaslight them into thinking this is killing everyone. Martial law has been declared in Kali and Colorado and other States and everyone applauds.
