the Covid in Italy had an impact similar to that of a war. This is what comes out of the words of Gian Carlo Blangiardo, The president ofState who intervened during the television broadcast Agora.

This year we will exceed the ceiling of 700,000 total deaths – Blangiardo explained – which is a worrying value because the last time we exceeded this number was in 1944, during the war”.

However, it would be an estimate since this fatal 2020 has yet to end, but the difference from the 2019 when in italy the dead were in total 647,000.

Since the coronavirus pandemic began, they have been in our country until now 65,011 confirmed deaths due to Covid. However, pending official data from Istat, it seems clear that the difference between the estimate for 2020 and the figures for 2019 coincides with the deaths attributed to the virus.

Blangiardo also provided other data related to Italy: “Ours is one An increasingly old country. All age groups under 44 years of age see their relative weight decrease compared to 2011, while the number of people aged 45 and over increases significantly, from 48.2% in 2011 to 53.5% in 2019”.

Thus, the average age has increased compared to 2011 from 43 to 45 years. In detail, the “oldest” region is still the Liguria (49 years old), while Campania (42 years old) is the youngest along with Trentino Alto Adige (43 years).
