CoVid19 Circulating in Italy By Mid-December
Vidcast: https://youtu.be/oktP81p0wh8
CoVid was detectable in the wastewater of Milan and Turin a full 2 months before the first known case of the novel coronavirus surfaced in Lombardy. Researchers at the Italian National Institute of Health draw this surprising conclusion after testing wastewater samples from various Italian cities gathered as far back as September, 2018.
The first CoVid-positive samples appeared on December 18th in Milan and Turin and on January 29th in Bologna. The first Italian case of CoVid was identified in Lombardy on February 21st.
These findings are a testimony to hyper-infectious nature of this disease and to the fact that many are infected without even knowing it. Mask, distance, wash.
