After three months of battle, after so many deaths and lives saved, Annalisa Malara can finally breathe ... It was through this sparkling anesthesiologist and anesthesiologist that the terrible news arrived on February 21: Covid-19, the infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, which appeared two months earlier in Wuhan, in the Chinese province of Hubei, has made its way to Europe. That day, Mattia Maestri, hospitalized in Codogno, in Lombardy, tested positive for the virus at the request of Dr. Annalisa Malara. The latter still ignores it, but its diagnosis announces the arrival of an epidemic which will make Lombardy the most affected region in Europe, and the province of Bergamo a still more deadly epicenter, in proportion Wuhan.
While Italy has been on the verge of decommissioning since May 4 with the fear of a spiraling relapse, it is still difficult to measure the tragedy that has struck the Lombard plains. Since the start of the health crisis, 33,689 deaths (as of June 4) have been attributed to Covid-19 in the country - an understated number, it is widely believed. Half of the victims lived in Lombardy alone. A generation, that of memory, has been decimated. The villages have lost their elders, left without saying goodbye.
