Italy -- a country that has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic -- is starting to see a glimmer of hope.
Italy finally turns a corner after weeks of battling COIVD-19 infections. Infections are decreasing and doctors are releasing patients.
While the country begins to open up slowly, many Italians understand that their lives will not be the same as it was before the pandemic and complete normalcy is in the rear view mirror. Factories and shops will begin to reopen, while gathering at large events are not even a thought yet.A whole new way of life, that’s the realization for many. Just like people in many cities across the United States, Italians fill the streets walking and interacting daily with those around them.
Solutions are currently being floated around on ways to treat the virus, though nothing is set in stone. Testing for antibodies, finding a vaccine and an app to track COVID-19 patients, are all viable concepts. Though, due to privacy issues, handing over too much information to tech companies or the government make citizens uneasy.
