Coronavirus and Fashion manufacturing Industry in Italy

Reading various articles and the response of readers, I came across valuable information. It explains why the rate of coronavirus is so high in Italy.

I'll include here several articles which shed some light:

Italy has been ravaged by the Wuhan Coronavirus, but the reasons why are linked more closely to globalism than the age of the infected.
