A message on WhatsApp from my sister in Lipomo, Como.

The speed this virus is travelling is frightening. We are in the awful and quite scary stage. Bergamo is completely under. The doctors admit they have to choose who to save.
Bergamo has no room any more in the mortuary so coffins are being sent to a church.

Bergamo is a town 10 minutes drive away from her.

Sounds like time to panic.

and how has panicking ever helped anything?

I know you're worried about your sister. I am so sad this is happening. On a much lighter note, does anyone know if George Clooney is in Italy?

I don't know. His house is about 8 miles from hers.

@Petter darn i was hoping for more inside news. Seriously I'm glad she's in a rural area and hope she stays safe.

@Lorajay It's not exactly "rural". It's a suburban village of Como. But they have a large house on its own land, so don't ever need to come into contact with other villagers, except when shopping.

You can all go the the WHO website for real-time updates from around the world, maps, death tolls, etc.
(World Health Organizatio, just Google " WHO updates" )

I'm getting Rome and Lombardia updates all the time from my reporters "on the ground" there.
