Italy’s army is set to begin guarding medical staff in Calabria starting Monday. The decision follows a series of violent attacks on doctors and nurses.
The turning point was an assault at the Policlinico hospital in the southern city of Foggia in early September. A group of about 50 relatives and friends of a 23-year-old woman — who died during emergency surgery — turned their grief and rage into violence, attacking the hospital staff.
So, Italy, hows things going?
Jezus christ!
Every single person involved in that should be banned from medical care for the rest of their short irrelevant lives. Set an example now.
I’d be more inclined to make all 50 dependent on medical care. At least for the near term.
