Italy needs to find out what they did wrong that allowed corona to spread fast


Actually the virus spread throughout Europe starting from Germany:

Italy was the only European country that stopped all the flights to/from China. Germany did not. And the German government had hospitalized the first European case (a German citizen working for a company with a factory in Wuhan, China) on January 27 (one month before the first case seen in Italy).

Yet they completely failed to promptly recognize the problem, did not take any countermeasure and let the disease spread throughout Europe (the same German company, Webasto, has also a factory in Torino, Italy).

The second link (with a detailed description of the dynamics and chronology), points to a report of the prestigious "The New England Journal of Medicine" and is signed by many German researchers.

Interesting enough, also during the renaissance period the plague was spread in Italy by German (and Swiss) mercenaries (landsknechts).


This first hotspot of Corona in Germany was an example how authorities and the company reacted quickly, so that there was a total of 19 infected people, and the outbreak was completely stopped. For weeks after this hotspot, there were no new cases in n Germany, and only end of February a new massive outbreak started in a totally different region of Germany.

So what you say is nonsense, and your sources don‘t speak about a spread from Germany abroad at that stage either. The 19 infected people in Bavaria were limited to a town outside Munich. No other cases appeared anywhere else in Bavaria at that time and the following weeks. And you speculate the virus „jumped“ from that town to Italy, sparing all the rest of Bavaria and Austria...
Your comment about the plague however makes me wonder: is it your main motivation to play the blame game in a deeper sense?
