People talked too much about the theory that the match between Atalanta and Valencia in Milan is a biological bomb that spreads the contagious virus from Italy to Spain, then makes the two nations become most infected nations in the Europe. Maybe it is right but to say Atalanta manager hid their info about infected players and kept playing that match and did not care about risks of Valencia players' health is lack of proof.
Understandable, but this is not only one factor and it is very possible there are many other factors that caused these two countries to get a terrible pandemic. But now almost everything can be overcome because we are in the middle of a period between pandemic, treatment, and return to normal. We all need to be able to see and be optimistic about the future and make the pandemic a history that we will remember in old age.
LaLiga will start soon next week or on June 12, 2020, I really hope that the first match after a long delay does not become an awkward match between the players. Hopefully everything goes smoothly.
@BITCOIN4X one of the biggest common factor between these two countries was their over confidence, because both Italy and Spain had knowledge that covid19 was spreading quickly, but they refused to act on that information.
Also another factor that they had in common which led to the surge in covid19 cases was their failure to close public places, and stop mass gatherings when covid19 cases were initially detected, and had they taken swift actions then many people’s lives could have been saved.
Unfortunately, overconfidence was another trait shared by the governments of Spain and Italy in the critical weeks leading up to COVID-19’s explosion. Authorities in both countries underestimated just how fast the virus could spread and how quickly it could push their healthcare systems to the verge of collapse.
Italy’s failures – partially justified by the unprecedented nature of the event – happened despite the successful policies to contain the pandemic already used in countries such as China, South Korea, and Singapore.
On March 8, the same day a quarantine zone was declared across much of Northern Italy, the Spanish government was encouraging people across the country to take to the streets for International Women’s Day protests.
At the time, 10 people had already died of COVID-19 in Spain and 520 cases had been confirmed. On the day of the massive protests, Spain’s health minister held a press conference telling people to stay home if they were feeling ill.
