German Hospitals To Take In 47 Coronavirus Patients From Italy by Nobody: 8:33am On Mar 27, 2020

German hospitals with spare capacity will take in at least 47 coronavirus patients from Italy in a sign of European solidarity, Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said on Thursday.

“Because we stand by our Italian friends. We can only manage this together,” Maas said in a short statement.

In Italy, an overwhelmed health care system has witnessed the outbreak kill more people than in any other country.

Ahead of an expected larger wave of domestic infections that German authorities are preparing for, a first group of six Italian patients arrived at Leipzig airport in the eastern state of Saxony on Tuesday.

The western state of North Rhine-Westphalia also announced plans to take 10 Italian patients in coming days.

As of Wednesday, there were 36,508 cases of coronavirus in Germany, with 198 deaths, the Robert Koch Institute for infectious diseases said. That compares with 74,386 confirmed cases in Italy, where 7,503 have died.

German Health Minister Jens Spahn said earlier on Thursday that the country was still in “the calm before the storm”, adding authorities were using the time they had won with extensive testing to prepare for a wave of cases expected in the coming weeks.

47 patients out of 74,000? I don't understand. If I were an Italian COVID-19 patient, I guess I would love to be one of those 47 lucky people.

That's good.

To digress.... It is not about giving Lagos 10bn to fight Covid-19. It is about prevention. Prevention is better than cure. Our government was reckless and irresponsible by allowing returnees enter the country without first placing them on quarantine. You can never trust a human being to self isolate on his own, it is not possible.
The guys at NCDC are trying, but we are not conducting enough tests like we should. I believe the more we test, the more we will discover more cases.
Thank God for Jack Ma's test kits.
Stay safe everyone and protect yourselves.

Are all the 74000 critical cases? Or you don't understand the concept of priority?
