Marcello Natali, 57, had been hospitalized in Cremona when he developed double pneumonia. He had no underlying health conditions.
A doctor in Italy who described his concerns in a recent television interview about how the shortages of medical supplies meant he had to treat patients with coronavirus without wearing gloves, has died from the illness.
He said in the interview,"We certainly weren't prepared to face such a situation. Especially those of our generation, that of the post-antibiotic era, who grew up thinking that a pill against disease was enough. After he tested positive, Natali was hospitalized in Cremona before being transferred to Milan after developing double pneumonia.
She said that in Bergamo province alone, 110 doctors out of 600 doctors were sick and that medical supplies were still low.
