The lessons Italy has learned about its COVID-19
outbreak could help the rest of the world

Only carefully conducted epidemiological studies
will bring to light exactly how and why COVID-19
took off in northern Italy with such speed. But in the
midst of the emergency, experts say there are already
lessons to be gleaned from Italy's fatal errors — and
urgent messages for other parts of the world.

"The biggest mistake we made was to admit
patients infected with COVID-19 into hospitals
throughout the region," said Carlo Borghetti, the vice- premier of Lombardy, an economically crucial region
with a population of 10 million.

"We should have immediately set up separate
structures exclusively for people sick with
coronavirus. I recommend the rest of the world do
this, to not send COVID patients into health-care
facilities that are still uninfected."

Already, Italian cities in other regions are doing
this, as well as field hospitals in Milan and Bergamo, Lombardy, which are almost complete.

However, the virus was not only spread to "clean" — i.e. infection-free — hospitals by admitting
positive patients. In early March, as the number of
infected was doubling every few days, authorities
allowed overwhelmed hospitals to transfer those who
tested positive but weren't gravely ill into assistedliving facilities for the elderly.

"It was like throwing a lit match onto a haystack,"
said Borghetti, who spoke out against the directive at
the time. "Some facilities refused to take in the
positive patients. For those that did [take them in], it
was devastating."

Along with the tragic misstep of putting infected
people under the same roof as clusters of the most
physically vulnerable, Borghetti and others point to a
deeper structural factor that accelerated the outbreak
in northern Italy: a highly centralized health-care
system with large hospitals as its focus.
