One Italian Town's Coronavirus Success Story Spells Doom for America, Crypto Coins News
  • As Italy’s death toll and infection continue to rise, one small Italian village has bucked the trend.
  • Vo Euganeo has lowered its infection rate by stringent testing.
  • Unfortunately, the US has stumbled comically behind in terms of testing.

Italy’s death toll recently surpassed China, and the infections seem to balloon every day. As the coronavirus continues to batter the country, some parts of Italy have managed to buck the trend.

How did they do it? By succeeding where, up to this point, the United States has miserably failed.

Testing. Testing. And more testing.

“An Alarming Portion of People Were Already Positive For the Virus”

Northern Italian village, Vo Euganeo, has a population of only about 3, 1016 people. According to the Independent, the town started vigorously testing its inhabitants. They found that nearly 3% of their population (about people) had tested positive.

One town in Italy got it right. | Source: Twitter Andrea Crisanti, professor of microbiology at the University of Padua, told the ABC’s The World Today: We tested everybody. We found that an alarming portion of people were already positive for the virus.

Crisanti and his team ordered the infected patients to stay home. He even asked them to avoid hospitals, as they “could be a major source of infection.”

The result? The second round of testing showed just a 0.3% infection rate. Crisanti continues:

We were able to show that isolating all the positive cases allowed us to reduce the rate of infection.

The governor of Veneto, Luca Zaia, just named Vo Euganeo “ the healthiest place in Italy. ”

The US Is Still Woefully Behind On Coronavirus Testing

. First, while the US should’ve been mass testing,
Donald Trump predicted the coronavirus would go away in weeks.

Then, he decided against using private companies and WHO for testing kits.

Then, the CDC mass -produced tests that did not work.

according to Dr. Michael Mina, an epidemiologist at Harvard University:

The incompetence has really exceeded what anyone would expect with the CDC This is not a difficult problem to solve in the world of viruses.

At every point, America has been lagging behind in testing compared to countries like South Korea, which has slowed the spread.

It seems like the US still hasn’t learned. While testing is slowly starting to ramp up,

some of the country’s youngest citizens can’t seem to let go of their spring break. Crowds of party-goers are still congregating in places like Miami.

Crisanti said:

The real problem is asymptomatic people who test positive. If we continue to let them wander around, we will never get rid of the epidemic.

The fact that the US government is still letting these crowds gather is an abomination. While Trump focuses most of his energy on the stock market, the U.S. is facing an unprecedented health crisis, unprepared.

But hey,

maybe Trump will send us $ 1,
