It's been few months since I post mainly because I changed job and I've been very busy. This evening I feel it's EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to share this with all my good friends here since early 2000.
Please do note this is NOT a troll post: many of you maybe remember me and the fact that I always been very straightforward and sincere. Do not underestimate this situation in the USA: you live in a great Country with economic power and above all people able to overcome any adversity.
But here in Italy the situation is far worse to what you can read in the news.
I live in a fairly small town (25.000 people) but still at the moment we do not know where to put the bodies of dead people. It's this bad, really. The church near the town hospital today was completely full with casks waiting to be sent to the cemetery.
Commercial activities are 90% closed: two weeks ago I had the idea to buy large quantities of food (approx for 60 days for me and my wife). Supermarkets are empty, no food there for the moment. We're locked in my house waiting for the situation to hopefully get better but I'm not that optimistic.
So my friends this is not meant to scare you BUT TO WARN YOU: do not underestimate this situation. Be safe, avoid if possible contact with people and start putting away food for you and your loved ones.
Stay strong my friends, a big hug from Italy.
