After entering Italy, the coronavirus (COVID-19) spread fast. The strict lockdown implemented by the government during the Spring 2020 helped slowing down the outbreak. However, in the following months the country had to face four new harsh waves of contagion. As of September 25, 2024, 197,629 deaths caused by COVID-19 were reported by the authorities, of which approximately 48 thousand in the region of Lombardy, 20 thousand in the region of Emilia-Romagna, and roughly 17.5 thousand in Veneto, the regions mostly hit.
The total number of cases reported in the country reached almost 26.9 million. The north of the country was mostly hit, and the region with the highest number of cases was Lombardy, which registered almost 4.4 million of them. The north-eastern region of Veneto counted about 2.8 million cases.
Italy's death toll was one of the most tragic in the world. In the last months, however, the country saw the end to this terrible situation: as of November 2023, 85 percent of the total Italian population was fully vaccinated.
