    About this ebook

    3rd updated edition. Pages 154. Illustrated with 30 freely reproducible mini-posters

    On January 27, the European Center for Disease Control defined the risk that Covid-19 could reach Europe as "moderate". Today, two months later, the virus has practically invaded all continents.

    In the new edition this book has been heavily updated, but the initial premise remains valid. There is a big need for information. Only the knowledge of a danger can help to overcome it. Often, however, information reaches us fragmented, full of incomprehensible technical terminologies or distorted by the disinformers who infest the web. Discrepancies in opinions among scientists increase confusion.

    This book was written to be understood. The author is an expert communicator in scientific subjects. He clearly presents a great deal of advice and recommendations relating to prevention along the lines of the WHO and ECDC. Furthermore, the book clarifies many controversial aspects such as the possibility of contagion from objects, and the possibility of infecting or being infected by pets.

    Considering the spread of the virus, the book proposes new topics of great relevance. When will this pandemic end? But above all, "after" what will happen? What will be the consequences in terms of social relationships? What will the economic consequences be?

    There is one question that includes all the others. When will we go back to normal? There is only one possible answer. We will never go back to normal. When the tsunami has passed, nothing will be as before. We are experiencing the prelude to a new social organization.

      Considering the spread of the virus, the book proposes new topics of great relevance. When will this pandemic end? But above all, after what will happen? What will be the consequences in terms of social relationships? What will the economic consequences be?

      There is one question that includes all the others. When will we go back to normal? There is only one possible answer. We will never go back to normal. When the tsunami has passed, nothing will be as before. We are experiencing the prelude to a new social organization.

      The current situation (25 March 2020)

      As of March 4, the Italian authorities have established some very strict rules of conduct. Italians will have to avoid crowded places. Everyone must keep a minimum distance of one meter with other people. Greetings with kisses, hugs or handshakes should be avoided. In practice, the rules that were previously reserved for the so-called red zones have been extended to the whole country.

      The primary objective is to prevent too close contacts between people from promoting contagion.

      All the main behavior recommendations refer to those issued by the WHO. These are the same rules illustrated in this book well in advance.

      While these rules were being issued, the hunt for Italian contagion carriers was opening in Europe and in the world, forgetting an important aspect. Of course, the virus comes from China. Secondly, it is necessary to consider what has recently emerged in relation to the path of the virus. According to the latest reconstructions, the virus has passed from China to Germany. One or more people infected in Germany brought him to Italy, in the Codogno area. Of course, the virus had not been recognized in Germany and was not recognized immediately in Italy. This initial uncertainty was sufficient to extend the contagion uncontrollably.

      Some attitudes towards Italy by European partners, and in particular some satirical initiatives that can be defined as repugnant, have been decidedly out of place and this appears all the more evident the more we examine the current situation in these countries.

      In the last few days we have been able to witness a series of second thoughts and changes of opinion at 360 degrees.

      Covid-19 is proving to be a much more serious problem than anyone could have
