This is from a friend in Bergamo, Italy.

Todays Update:
not really on the COVID19 (793 deads, of which 546 in Lombardy alone) but on how we got that hell here.

The most credited theory is
A F.....G soccer match.

The numbers seems all right:
ATALANTA-VALENCIA, Soccer Match on 19 FEB 2020, SAN SIRO STADIUM, MILAN, LOMBARDY

COVID 19 was still thought as a Chinese thing, 45,000 fans from the northern regions watched the match (Atalanta is the Bergamo team, and it was sort of the higher match/championship run. Not a soccer fan, so I'm bit ignorant)

MARCH 4, 14 exact days after the match, when the first cases were found and they were searching for patient 0, the sky falls on Bergamo and it begins the shitslide what you see now.

MARCH 9, Atalanta team goes in Valencia, playing a closed door match. Thank god no fans watching. Stadium was sold out.

MARCH 16, Valencia coach says that all his personnel is found positive to Corona Virus.

This all seems very plausible. We had 45K patient 0's.
