The death toll of coronavirus victims in Italy reached 1,809. Over the past 24 hours there was an increase of 368 deaths. On Saturday, this went up by 175.
2,335 people were healed in Italy after contracting the virus, 369 more than yesterday.
More than 20,000 patients have been exceeded: a total of 20,603, an increase of 2,853 compared to Saturday, while the total number of infected people – including victims and the recovered – reached 27,747.
The data was provided by the emergency commissioner Angelo Borrelli at a press conference to the Civil Protection.
While the government is working on new measures to support the economy and workers for the coronavirus emergency, the situation in Lombardy is becoming more complicated every day.
“We intubate in Intensive Care even more than 7 people a day and we work tirelessly, with an average of one shift every 14 days”, tells ANSA Ivano Riva, anesthesiologist and resuscitator of the Giovanni XXIII Hospital in Bergamo. “If the trend of the SarsCov2 epidemic continues at this rate, Bergamo will still hold up very little,” he admitted.
