After entering Italy between the end of January and the beginning of February 2020, the coronavirus (COVID-19) has spread throughout the whole country. Many people died after contracting the infection. As of May 2023, the mortality rate for female patients was 0.6 percent, while the corresponding figure for male patients was 0.9 percent in Italy.
In the last months, however, the country saw the end to this terrible situation: as of May 2023, roughly 84.7 percent of the total Italian population was fully vaccinated.
The virus originated in Wuhan, a Chinese city populated by millions and located in the province of Hubei. More statistics and facts about the virus in Italy are available here.
