Steve is a good writer, and at this point it's pretty clear everybody should stay the f* home, so I'm all for pieces that achieve that. That being said, I do hate fear mongering, and insinuating that the situation in Italy is even worse than we may believe by a factor of 4 is a big stretch and unecessary. Some facts from Italian government institutes: [1] https://www.epicentro.iss.it/coronavirus/bollettino/Report-COVID-2019_20_marzo_eng.pdf https://www.epicentro.iss.it/coronavirus/bollettino/Report-C... - median age of death is 80 - 87% of deaths above 70 - 99% of deaths with 1 co-morbidity, and 74% with at least 2. [2] http://www.salute.gov.it/portale/caldo/SISMG_sintesi_ULTIMO.pdf http://www.salute.gov.it/portale/caldo/SISMG_sintesi_ULTIMO.... - deaths in March for above 65 year olds are still projecting lower than previous years
