In the northern part of Italy, where the new coronavirus infection spread, a ceremony was held for the first time in which the president attended and mourned the victims.

In Italy, new coronavirus infections were confirmed one after another in the north of late February, and more than 240,000 people have been infected and 34,738 people have died so far.

In one of the most seriously infected areas, northern Bergamo, a ceremony was held on the 28th in a cemetery to commemorate the victims.

President Mattarella also attended the ceremony, mourning the victims, stating, "Here Bergamo is a symbol of Italy that is suffering, hurt and mourning." The composer from Bergamo, Donizetti's "Requiem" was performed.

In Italy, restrictions on going out have been relaxed since the infection has been suppressed since May, but this is the first memorial ceremony in this form, which was broadcast live nationwide.

The Italian government has announced that it has killed 3,130 people in the province of Bergamo so far, but some local media reported that the number of actual victims was twice as high, and there was a temporary burial site. Instead, the bodies were to be transported by military trucks to other areas.

Among the bereaved families, there is a move to pursue responsibility for the delay in response by the authorities, which has led to the spread of the infection.
