At war with an invisible enemy, Italy remains the country in the world with the highest number of deaths from the outbreak of the new coronavirus since it overtook China.
Black numbers do not give up. In the last 24 hours, 651 more people died, which represents a relief compared to Saturday. The death toll currently stands at 5,476 people.
Exciting news, but not synonymous with the end of the nightmare, as explained by the head of Civil Protection, Angelo Borrelli: “The figures announced this Sunday are in contrast to those of Saturday. We hope that the trend can be confirmed in the coming days. No we must let our guard down. “
This Sunday’s balance is, however, the second highest since the pandemic began to hit the country.
On the ground, the police make sure that restrictions on movement are being respected, in order to contain the spread of the disease.
The number of people healed is currently 7,024, which represents an increase of 952 people compared to Saturday.
The province of Bergamo, in northern Italy, is the most affected area across the country. Hospitals burst at the seams, funerals follow one another and health professionals accuse the weakness resulting from intense work days.
