How to help hospitals facing the Coronavirus epidemic?
The Coronavirus epidemic is requiring a very great effort from the National Health Service which, especially in the regions most affected by the virus, but also in the rest of Italy, is putting every resource into every resource to assist the sick in an adequate manner.
We remember that Italian hospitals, in fact, must also take care of those who have other pathologies and problems, and the commitment is therefore really great and onerous.
Those who do not fall into the category of health workers can still support hospitals by participating in one of the many fundraisers opened in recent days by making a donation. Be it large or small, every donation is important and can make a difference in this moment and also represents a gesture of solidarity with those who are at the forefront of fighting the epidemic and with all Italians in general.
