Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University in Wuhan, China, is at the heart of the outbreak of Covid-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 that has shut down cities in China, as well as Iran, Italy, and South Korea. That’s forced the hospital to become a test bed for how quickly a modern medical center can adapt to a new infectious disease epidemic.

COVID-19: Italy, one week later



The epidemy of Coronavirus, now renown COVID-19, in Italy is formally started on the 31th of january, when two chinese tourist turned out positive to the virus. Then, a week ago, have been discoverd the first cases in north Italy, between the regions of Lombardia and Veneto, and in just seven days it has passed from 3 to 650 people positive.


The graphic below shows the progressive increase of infection from the 20th to the 27th of february, starting from the two chinese tourist and growing exponentially, due to the great number of tests carried out.



The second graphic shows the number of new cases each day



Last graph shows the number of deaths each day, but as many experts pointed out, since the majority of the individuals who perisced were elderly people and already with health problems, the death of an individual doesn't prove that the cause is for sure attributable to the virus: in fact, it may have been an irrelevant factor, considered the clinical conditions of the person.
