Italy’s intensive care virus cases drop for first time

Italy today has seen its first drop in patients receiving intensive care for the coronavirus that has killed 15,362 people in the country and put the health care system under massive strain.

“This is very important news,” civil protection service chief Angelo Borrelli tells reporters of the drop from 4,068 to 3,994 intensive care patients over the past 24 hours. “It allows our hospitals to breathe.”
