When Manufactured Panic Struck Italy

April 24, 2020

FROM Swiss Propaganda Research:

A message from an observer in Italy about the situation in Northern Italy on March 31, 2020:

“In recent weeks, most of the Eastern European nurses who worked 24 hours a day, 7 days a week supporting people in need of care in Italy have left the country in a hurry. This is not least because of the panic-mongering and the curfews and border closures threatened by the „emergency governments“. As a result, old people in need of care and disabled people, some without relatives, were left helpless by their carers.

Many of these abandoned people then ended up after a few days in the hospitals, which had been permanently overloaded for years, because they were dehydrated, among other things. Unfortunately, the hospitals lacked the personnel who had to look after the children locked up in their apartments because schools and kindergartens had been closed. This then led to the complete collapse of the care for the disabled and the elderly, especially in those areas where even harder “measures” were ordered, and to chaotic conditions.

The nursing emergency, which was caused by the panic, temporarily led to many deaths among those in need of care and increasingly among younger patients in the hospitals. These fatalities then served to cause even more panic among those in charge and the media, who reported, for example, “another 475 fatalities,” The dead are being removed from hospitals by the army“, accompanied by pictures of coffins and army trucks lined up.

However, this was the result of the funeral directors‘ fear of the „killer virus“, who therefore refused their services. Moreover, on the one hand there were too many deaths at once and on the other hand the government passed a law that the corpses carrying the coronavirus had to be cremated. In Catholic Italy, few cremations had been carried out in the past. Therefore there were only a few small crematoria, which very quickly reached their limits. Therefore the deceased had to be laid out in different churches.

In principle, this development is the same in all countries. However, the quality of the health system has a considerable influence on the effects. Therefore, there are fewer problems in Germany, Austria or Switzerland than in Italy, Spain or the USA. However, as can be seen in the official figures, there is no significant increase in the mortality rate. Just a small mountain that came from this tragedy.”

Actually, according to what I’ve seen so far (such as this article in Italian), the mortality rate in Italy from January to April 2020 was in fact lower than last year (although there was an unusual peak in the Lombardy region).

Another thing not mentioned is that because of the “corona panic”, many people with other health problems who did not go to the hospital for fear of getting infected, may have died (although, these days, I am not sure if hospitals don’t kill more people than they save). So perhaps because of this, and because of the economic crisis, it is possible that the final mortality figures are going to be higher, but perhaps more due to “corona panic” and closures than corona itself.

However, besides the health issue, I am more worried about the future social consequences of corona-panic. It is clear now that “social distancing” (and perhaps even masks), as well as “lockdowns”, are here to stay, even if there is no proof that they are helpful. Since the precedent was established, next time there is a flu or any other disease, perhaps they will lock people again as a “preventive measure”. Or people will do it by themselves, as they have been trained to it already.

Social atomization and the lack of any social and community life for many people was already a problem in the West before corona, it will be a bigger problem now. Apparently, the powers that be want us alone, locked inside, and hooked to digital media 24/7.
