| Description | At the beginning of the global lockdowns in March 2020, pictures of piles of coffins in Northern Italy being transported away in convoys of army trucks under the cover of night, became probably the most important images to justify hard measures. |
Crowded COVID-19 Wards
Footage of crowded Italian COVID-19 hospital wards were repeatedly used by US media, with titles indicating they were in New York or elsewhere in the US.
COVID in Italy
In October 2021 the official Italian Higher Institute of Health (Istituto superiore di Sanità) corrected the number of estimated Covid deaths since February 2020, from over 130,000 to below 4,000. It turned out that 97.1% of the deaths that had so far been attributed to Covid-19 were not directly related to the disease. At the same time, the health institute reported that Covid has killed fewer people than the average seasonal flu.[1]
