guys you have nailed the point......we had a lot of infections well before the explosion of this thing. They have recognized it. The reconstruction of events says that anything starts in Baviera, Germany. A chinese business woman from Hubei region, got to Munchen without knowing to be infected. There she infected a few germans. The german authority got to know she was infected and quarantined everyone who came in contact with her. But unfortunately a Lombard guy was there also and got infected too and brought the infection to Lombardy. At this point in some time many others got infected in Lombardy and some got to the hospitals to be treated. But, the protocol given to the regions by roman government, was to not test people for covid because it was the typical time for normal flu in italy, so that no one was tested and the spread went on undisturbed. Until someone, worried by patient number 1, a 37 years old guy two meters tall in very good health condition till then, who was suddenly aggravating, decided to test him for covid and found him positive. The rest is a well known story. But pay attention because there are many young people in Veneto that are living in London in order to learn English and I' ve heard a testimonial last week saying that the same understimation has happened in England and I think also in France and more or less everywhere else. In other words it seems that anyone in the west, understimated what was happening resulting in what you see on tv every day. But without the shut down, we wouldn' t have reached the flat part of the infection curve as we' ve done recently.
