   As an Italian who lived through the pandemic I agree with some parts of the report.. but it is true that it wasn't the full story yes. I also believe that as the first Nation to fight the virus Italy did what it could.. none knew how bad it really could get and I think they removed the report because it would just muddy the discussion around pro and against quarantine in a period where many countries where trying their best not to close down while they should have. It basically would have done more harm than good and sometimes you need to think twice of the effect that the voice from an authority like the who can have, even if it tells the truth. A report criticising Italy response would be very useful to prepare for the next pandemic but at that time would only hinder the authority of the current response

   Thanks. Where can I download the report that WHO has taken down?

   I think is quite stupid blaming Italy for its response, when they did better than half of to other countries (UK included) even if there wasn't any information about the virus…

   Never forget that even in March WHO was only recommending to test people showing symptoms and told everyone you shouldn't wear a mask if not obviously sick. What a bunch of incompetent morons.

   So, for starter, it was really underestimated: many politicians, especially on the far right, downplayed the event, and Italy was slower than it could have been; that said, we really were Europe's "patient 0", so it's, if not forgivable, more understandable. After that, it was like plugging leaks, a very Italian way to do stuff. But, as a normal citizen and observer, although many, many negative observations can be made (structural problems, underfunded welfare, bad regional decisions, chaos in the media), the response has been decent, the government has tried its best and has resisted the pushback from the more unpopular but necessary measures. Conte (and that "e" sounds like "sand", not "beer", dammit!) has used his charisma and his clean history as a good tool to convince the Italian population of the importance of following the rules, and he won't be badly remembered. What I'm saying is, it could have been way, way worse.

   Italy was the first country to fight back. This while everybody else was chanting "the virus won't change our lives"

   PS: Buy Italian

   I don't want to be the punctilious one… but why is the shape of Italy represented without Sicily and Sardinia on this channel? I'm sorry but it's like showing the UK without Scotland, Wales and Northern Island…
   Controversiaaaal! (And without a reason)

   Anyone who knows Italy also knows that the burocracy there does not function at all. Rules and regulations can be made as often as you like but stumble on the public organisation needed to implement them. Priority is traditionally given to what there is for lunch and dinner.

    There's another big chunk: Italy's investigators, who are checking if Italian government executed correctly it's response to the pandemic, have asked four times, now, the relators of the WHO to testimony. Relators want to, but WHO won't let them, and claims diplomatic immunity

    CCP China seems to be blaming Europe, specifically Italy, for its origin of Covid 19. W.H.O. must’ve received orders from China.

    I maintain that no government has handled covid correctly. Everyone knew a pandemic was possible but nobody prepared. Humans do not judge risk well. Politicians did not prioritize pandemic planning.

    If people are honest, I don't think anyone would have done better with the same circumstances.

    Undoubtedly italy made many mistakes, as many other countries, would like to see reports about usa and UK, and china itself.
    This is a political report, probably to shift the blame to Italy from other sources, and removed afterwards to fit other political issues.

    We have too many connections with China. I come from one of the places most heavily affected, that’s also why it went so wrong

    Sarebbe interessante investigare sulla reale indipendenza del WHO rispetto agli stati e ai filantropi che lo finanziano con ricche donazioni e se questo non possa, in qualche modo, condizionare poliche sanitarie, campagne di vaccinazione, cure farmaceutiche.. e linee guida durante una pandemia.

    Why would anyone trust an organisation that is led by someone who covered up for a pandemic in their own country ? thats like the blind leading the blind.

    Italy had such a bad response that, starting as Europe's epicenter of the pandemic, we ended up having 20000 less deaths than the UK….

    To all the italians: thank you. Italy was the first country whose doctors spoke openly about the disease and showed us all what to expect. Italy was the first to be hit and to have their doctors guessing what was going on. Italian doctors were in touch doctors from other countries sharing everything they knew.
    Thank you again.
    The WHO should have provided better info than masks were not needed in January. Yes, I have not forgotten that!!

    the WHO is one of the most corrupt and vile institutions in the world, ask impoverished indians and africans how they feel about the WHO and their "vaccines", i'm not even gonna watch the video, i already know its shit. stop believing big media, big pharma, big banks, and big government, i am beginning to believe the world deserves rulers if we are seriously this stupid

    WHO is China's puppet and China is trying to shift the blame from them to the West, that's way they published this despicable report
