Italy fears second wave of Coronavirus after lockdown eased 

From an Italian living in the UK...I was quite shocked to see how long it took to declare the Lockdown in the UK. This is a really sad moment for the two countries that are a big part of my life

113 year old Spanish woman recovered today from Covid-19. Remarkable.

There are more important questions, like: why the F don't UK media concentrate on the situation in their country, since it's worse than the Italian one? They keep going on with this sh!tty sensationalism instead of focusing on the UK problems. Why are they so obsessed with Italy? Gosh. It's not like things in the UK are all fun and games...

Since the moment I began to watch the news on british channels I was intrigued and rather disgusted to notice that they almost always point to their own weaknesses in others countries and their populations. It does require a certain skill to do that. Are they too timid? Is it that they don't want to frighten their audience by telling them the truth about their own country and its own ordeals ? Is it not a kind of intellectual dishonesty? Edit : so terribly touched by the courage, the dignity and the humanity coming our way from Italiens. Viva e Forza Italia !

As a country we can spend billions of £s on wars all over the world yet we become incompetent when basic tests and PPE can't be found for the people.

The Italian people are traumatised . I am sending blessing and peace.

but italy had no warning really, we had every warning, every warning we needed

Meanwhile, here in Brazil, the president and its minions still say that the virus is "fake". Help, please!

That poor lady god bless her parents rip

Our condolences to our Italian brethren!

You can't even reach out to comfort them....no hugs...😭

Italian cemeteries are so pretty. God rest their souls.

mourn for my loved Italian who passed away. it's really sad story. God bless Italy. now the situation become better and better. let's keep improving

This is what needs to be remembered when people start complaining about lockdown! It might not be you or your children but what about mothers, fathers and other people’s parents! Let us not be selfish and look after each other even when governments are unsure. Use common sense and apply it where necessary

Keep reading. Keep learning. This is going to affect us for years.

To the beautiful people of Italy, I am so sorry for the pain you are all going through, please keep strong , my prays are with you ,as I am frightened about this virus to. Love from Australia 🇦🇺

1:27 is heartbreaking

Italy is my favourite country after Spain (im spanish), FORZA ITALIA! VENCEREMOS!

Sad and terrible

My mother's people are from northern Italy. This is very sad.

My heart aches for Italy. They truly suffered.

I am so sorry for your shattering and sad loss. May the lord give you comfort.Know we are praying in our hearts.

Never underestimate any illness. May every body who have died from this illness rest in peace 🙏

I feel so sorry for everyone who has lost someone they loved. I’ve never experienced this type of pandemic before. But we need to get through this. We’re all in this together.

"History doesn't repeat itself." Yes. It. Does.

This was such a well-documented report and just simply touching.

So touching, made me tear up. CCP and WHO must be hold accountable for their b.s especially ccp their opressive regime should end.

Absolutely breaks your heart. RIP xxx

Sunshine will comes after this dark day. God will help us.

The man talking about his government mistakes while not covering his nose with the mask... for real man

God Bless Italy and the world to an end to this Pandemic 🇺🇸🙏❤️

In Italy they were unprepared, here we've been arrogant thinking that this virus would have not come in UK. In London the virus was spreading for 4 weeks before acting the lock down. We have been the last to be hit but the worse. The highest mortality rate in Europe and the longest lock down, 3 months.

So sorry about their pain.

What happened it Italy was that in Northern Italy there was community spread long before community spread was recognized . It was spreading in Northern Italy in January if not before then

It is all very sad what happened with all those deaths with coronavirus. If a second wave of COVID-19 occurs again in Italy, people cannot be locked down forever because the economy will suffer.

4.18 he said companies closed down not factories, bad translation throughout

'Just one Cornetto! Give it to me! Delicious ice-cream, from It-aly!' That's a line from an advert in the 1980s that I recite now because we've all basically gone back to the 1980s over the last 6 weeks.

Don't worry about the second wave yet. You haven't even gotten through your first one.

02:45...speechless...scary...

You can either fear everything or just keep living and deal with things as them come. Hiding is not a option.

So terrible for anyone to lose loved ones like that ; but it seems a better way of judging the impact of Covid-19 is comparing to previous years' deaths, like they've done here. Not everyone who died got to be tested, so the "excess" gives an indication of how serious it is.

Do not call italy the Wuhan of europe 🙄🙄

Italians always greet friends and family with a kiss on each cheek...at least they did...that is how the virus spread so quickly.Plus Italians tend to live with their older family members.The country has a larger number of older residents and sadly it was these who lost their lives the most.The UK has now overtaken Italy in the number of deaths,which is horrendous...we should have learnt from their mistakes.

But UK is the worst hit country in Europe (even though they don't want to be part of Europe anymore).

Developed countries have such a high life span that developing countries can only dream of.

We're all buggered.

This is heartbreaking and I cannot watch.

Ok let's make this clear because UK news like to talk trash about other countries without looking at their own: the death rate in ITALY on march 2020 is 50% higher than march 2019. The hotspots were only in northern regions, while central and southern Italy were not really affected by it (the lockdown worked and protected them because it was put in time for the virus to not spread there too). So while some cities in the North showed a big increase (i.e. Bergamo, an hotspot in the Lombardia region, hit the terrible +568% death rate higher), other cities most in central and southern italy showed a death rate that was the same or even LOWER than the previous year (i.e. Rome was -9.4%, Naples -0.9%). That's why experts have started talking about "the three italy-s" when talking about how important it is to impose a lockdown at the right time. There are very highly densities in southern Italy and hospitals are not as equipped as in the North, what happened was a miracle led by science, it could have been a catastrophe but the lockdown prevented that. The hospitals weren't sutured so they helped the ones in the North taking patients from them. That's how you talk about numbers, not how this journalist did.

OH BOY!

Establisment channel 4 I walked through Liverpool st station ( london ) lastnight Through to the underground barriers ...not one staff member there ...i said to my friend ...theres no staff ..a lady came on the microphone as said dont worry we are still here...we can hear everything you say ...she was in a enclosed office 20 metres away ...they have fitted microphones on the barriers while we are on lockdown...

That’s not true, we are the country in Europe that did most of the test, we are registering a very little number of infected and this number is decreasing every day onestly we are not fearing a second wave here in Italy

We are very sad for Italy with their fears of the second waves. Let us be staying stronger to win against the virus at this moment. This is the moment to now fight the virus with our own strength and ability.

This is so sad 😭

Shockingly roughly 20%deaths UK are in care homes😰

God bless Italy and england x

Is she aware Italy isn’t the hardest hit country🤨

People who died are very old people and they are almost 100 years old. I live in Canada and there are 38 million people and only 83,000 people test postive of virus and they recovered...Am I only one not worried?

I am Italian and the situation is not at all like it is described now. At the beginning it was very bad because the protocols of cure was not the good one. The respirator was not the good choice. Most f the dead were old and with serious sicknesses. Like in most of the countries the way of. Counting the death for the virus is quite ambiguous. Today May 17. The number of cases is falling down and in many regions we do not have any case of contagion. We are ready to get our freedom back. People risk more to die for hunger than for the Covid.

0:01 you mean New York City right? In Europe

Mean while here in Canada, it's almost like nothing happened. Our government never took this virus serious. Sad. But true.

Italy, we love you. Get well!

This is still the start,many many more will die over the next 6 mths.Life will go on but not for everyone.

gotta love the guy in Italy talking about the "mistakes the government made" in retrospect, while he's wearing his mask on his chin talking to people... stupidity never ends...

Debs husband says this is not about politics its about saving your lives. If you contract covid 19 you may well survive but you also may have gone through the fight of your life.

We should learn that easing lockdown will cause more to die!

Until the weather warms, you should fear another wave. This virus replicates the fastest at 8.6C/47.6F and N Italy had air temps hovering in the 5-11C/41-51F range for several weeks when the virus was rampaging. New York and Spain had similar air temps, which is why they had so many deaths.

GODBLESS ITALY AND EVERYONE AMEEN

Sad 😢

Person: Obviously grieving and mourning and unable to talk News reporters with their microphones: ↖️

This is much better than when the reporting is politicized. It does not need to be. What is happening and what has happened is plenty for us to see the gross inadequacies of our political system, political class and the kind of society they have created and its warped priorities.

"Ok...I'm dying bye"

Nothing at all to do with the headline

God bless all in Italy, lord keep them safe and well. Praying for you to recover, and to stand strong and keep the faith. 🙏🏻🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Wuhan of Europe? Oh Dear🤦

RIP x

While over here in America the president is urging states to open up even as the death toll is nearing 100,000 So sorry for all the beautiful lives lost in Italy and all around the world

This must be untrue, the Americans have told me its fake and overplayed

Sad that Iran in denial of virus till deputy health minister died and slow react in testing, people clogging roads for holiday as nation is at peak outbreak, went into only 1wk lockdown, has reopened mosques 2 wks ago and bazaars 1 mth ago has death rate 3× less than Italy. Hospital capacity 2× less than Italy yet hospital never full. Iran lockdown stringency rated mild by Oxford whereas Italy lockdown is rated very strict.

You have to lock Italy down don't let people in Outsiders

Uk media try to focus on your own your country first. Making like Britain nothing is happening in there, what heck?

Aye but lets face it deaths from old age,cancer,common flu, gunshot wounds and parachuting accidents have declined to zero!!

The woman in the last scene died on January 31st. min 5:16 Was that a covid-19 death?

People have died because the italian governament didn't allow autopsy at the beginning of the pandemic. Only last month doctor were able to perform authopsy with court order authorization and discover people were dying becuse of artherial blood clotting ,not the viral pneumonia as they originally thought. Perhaps a lot of people could have been save with the correct treatment. As a result of this new discovery the italian governament has ban all authopsy from covid 19 patients in hospital. WHY ?????? Also the use of plasma is been ostricized becuse had shown to be effective and no side effects even in extremely ill patients .WHY they dont want to people to get well ? Their political agenda wants unsafe vaccine, and totalitarian regime. While we were on lock down mafia bosses and terrorists has been free from prison .we have Lost our freedom of speach as new task forces remove any negative comment about them from most social platform. My heart goes to all those people they have lost their life 🙏

Poor people

I'm still trying to figure out why a journalist who sounds British is there in the hot spot to begin with...without a mask. I think it is so disrespectful to show up in their town and stand there without a mask. Even the locals behind her are wearing masks! Where did she just come from? What if she is carrying Covid? Why can't reporters just stay put in their own home cities for a while as countries ease back into public life? Reporters should be respectful and wait this out like others

😢 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

No offence but shouldn’t she be at home at her age !?

Its got to the point in Australia where its front page news and people rush to self isolate if we get one new case or just one death. That discipline is why we have beaten Covid-19. You can really only safely ease lockdowns if you are not getting any new cases and are doing about 5% testing. Even so it will be months and months until we open up overseas travel. We are all very comfortable with that because we know that travelers brought in most cases. Its tough on the hospitality industry and the many unskilled workers who are affected, but there is no choice. If the UK had closed the borders back in March and quarantined travelers under guard like we did you would not be in this situation where its now out of control. The damage to the economy will not be vastly worse than a short sharp response would induce.

That woman comparing Italy to uk is a fucking offense . Italy has been the first western country who was badly hit ( or at least that started doing massive testing ) , by the way the first person who resulted positive in Europe was a German man who had a chinese colleague who just came back from and Wuhan and who was positive ... Italy has done much more testing than uk , in uk , especially in the beginnign people were literally left at home wih all the symptoms dying . Loads of Italians living in London reaches out absolutely desperate , the youngest Italian person who died was the 19 years old who was living in London as his gp sent him back home with paracetamol despite he was a step away from developing the typical intestinal pneumonia of this virus ... if it wasn’t for his parents from Italy being absolutely mad about it and demanding the post mortem testing ( that resulted positive ) he would have had never been put among the covid victims list . Italy has never talked about herd immunity, Italy has acted as early as it could but the bomb had already exploded ... and in the meanwhile uk had that sort of joke of a prime minister of Johnson talkimg about herd immunity and “advising “ people not to go to pubs instead of closing it all , while all Europe was starting following Italy with lockdown .... uk has also much less intensive care units than Italy , that is at the second place in the world after France as the best health care system in the world . And despite seeing a country like Italy, In such a rich region like Lombardy , With its health system on its knees , uk kept wasting precious time , when it www obvious that something like that was happening in Lombardy it could have happened much worse everywhere else . So before comparing Italy and its response to this pandemic and even to the testing to uk wash your mouth .

Refused to allow me to fix my keypads miss spell on top but you all get the picture

As people start to gather and lockdown eases, cases are bound to increase a little. That's a logical inevitability.

Misleading title... Click bait

I can't take my eyes off the fact she's touching her ungloved hand with her gloved hand. And then she touched her mask with her hands. I know she's upset but still.

Why one glove then touch your face

💔

Good afternoon 😊👋 everyone and blessed be yall honest and thoughtful and kind and just and wise and good and right doing people of the world who do that which is peaceful and just and good without discarding your morals. #loving. #good. #goodafternoon. #texas. #america.

missleading title not cool

😢 😢 😢 😢 😢 😢 😢

People don’t realise just how poor many of these citizens are in the more remote areas of Italy. Daily life is a struggle, add Covid-19 & people are just surviving. They’ll be paying off funerals for years. Incredibly sad

Bless and bless Lovell iuliana Codreanu Luton ❤❤❤❤🙏😇👩‍💻
