99% of their deaths are over 70 with health issues are they not?

Around 9% mortality rate, that’s not good.

And they've been on total lock down for over two weeks.

This virus is unstoppable.

Actually it seems reasonable to expect a 2 week lag for the deaths. There is a 2-14 day incubation period and then it takes up to 2 weeks to die once symptoms start. So if the lockdown actually works, we should hopefully see deaths plateau at this level before going down in a week or so.

Stop it. People like Mr Perfect and WaWaWeeWa can't jack off to your logic. They need fear and death!

If you use this site you can see the countries handling of it. The “give us your refugees”EU is failing.

I seem to recall that Italy also declared they would be turning away elderly patients with COVID as well - death panels doing work!

I want to see a website with stats on the curve. It seems I recall seeing something that the 475 deaths in Italy were actually a "down tic" compared to prior days stats.

Italy had 345 deaths in yesterday’s release. So up 130 over the previous 24 hour total.

FU stout. Just because someone is over 70 doesn't mean they should be dead.

President Trump, Biden, Sanders and Hillary are all boomers over 70. Lots of productive, loved people over 70, a-hole.

It's called triage. They haven't had to do it yet, but there is a protocol in place if it comes to that. Everyone else is going to have one too because it's the most effective thing you can do in a situation of limited resources and overwhelming need.

Next week's numbers in Italy should tell us a whole lot.

If you happen to be one of the imbeciles that die from it then I'll get a good laugh.

Italy may become a much younger country by May (on average).
