@BackInTime I think in some ways it is too early to say if we are following Italy's pattern. It is worth noting that Italy had an early uncontained outbreak in a hospital, which has partially caused the high numbers of serious/critical cases and deaths.
One good thing we are doing is starting testing of all people in ICUs etc with respiratory illnesses to try and prevent this sort of outbreak.
I think more data from other European countries is needed to show whether we will all follow this pattern or if there are things that can be done to reduce the spread.
