Would it surprise you that smallish regional hospitals in Italy are overloaded? Especially given that this disease disproportionately hits the old, and Italy has the second-oldest population of any country in the world?

Italy also has 300K guest workers from China, many of whom went home for the holidays and returned. Italy also has a lot of Chinese tourism.

We are not Italy.
