Unless someone does an audit of what went down in Italy, we can't be sure. Here in the states the combination of paying hospitals per WUHAN VIRUS case and death, and the media reporting made it seem worse than it really was. Did something like that happen in Italy?

What is the total death rate in Italy compared to previous years?

What are the symptoms? Flu-like.
And fun!
