In a phrase that indicates the medical situation in Italy, local medical resources in Italy are extremely tight, hospitals are at capacity and doctors are being asked to prioritize those most likely to survive.
They decided to set an age limit for the intensive care unit in response to local medical resources and patient conditions, meaning that there is selective treatment for critically ill patients.
If you know that the number of people diagnosed with the new type of pneumonia in the country is so high that they have not uttered a rule called selective treatment, you can imagine how the situation is on the Italian side. Although this rule is only one of the 15 recommendations issued by the Italian Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, it is issued and there are just as many doctors in Italy who do it. They are choosing every day whether to save this patient or that, and all because of the suddenness of the outbreak and the rapidity of the contagion.
As of March 12, Italy's new single-day 1,796 cases of new crown pneumonia, the cumulative number of confirmed cases has increased to 9,220 cases, and soon the number will break 10,000, 97 new deaths, the cumulative number of deaths of 463 people, the mortality rate of more than 5%, and there have been 99 cities across Italy have appeared in the outbreak, are all of these obvious grim outbreaks of the situation makes the contrast,. Italian medical resources and hospital beds are too few. Such a fact is bound to result in a part of the population that will not have access to medical resources. This is true in the developed cities of Italy, but it is even worse in the poorer regions of southern Italy, where hospitals are in a state of disrepair and where there is a lack not only of medical resources, but also of doctors and nurses. That's why the nurses are making their own masks out of old sheets, it's all a matter of necessity.
Obviously the situation is so serious, but in Italy there are still some people do not appreciate, because some time ago Italy just issued a sealing decree, which makes the Italian people are still quite dissatisfied with them and even on the streets to protest, in this critical situation, they also did not wear masks, which also makes the virus spread so quickly in Italy. People crowded people walking in the street also do not wear masks, shouting each other a variety of slogans, a variety of spittle flying, once the parade team has a virus-carrying personnel, that is not a total wipeout .
