Major hunt for ‘patient zero’ begins as Italy is hit by seventh Coronavirus death Corvid19
A MAJOR hunt for "patient zero" was underway last night as Italy was hit by its seventh Coronavirus death.The hunt for Italy's coronavirus 'super-spreader' began as the country's official death toll hit sevenInitially it was thought to have been a 38-year-old businessman who dined with a colleague in Milan and was carrying the virus but initially showed no symptoms.
Seven Italian regions have been hit by movement restrictions with much of it focused in the north of the country with around 27million people affected.Several towns are in lockdown across northern Italy and police and troops are strictly controlling access.
After it bleeps and assures me I’m well I’m allowed to go through and in arrivals the place is like a church - silent and empty, the usual hustling taxi drivers nowhere to be seen. It feels as if I have entered some crazy world. Especially if you think about how 17,000 people die from flu every year in Britain, whic is almost eight times more than the global current Covid 19 death toll.
