Flavio Briatore has been admitted since Monday, August 25, at the San Raffale hospital in Milan after becoming infected with coronavirus. According to the Corriere della Sera, this Tuesday he is undergoing new tests and at the moment he is not in intensive care.

The contagion of the businessman, whose condition is serious according to some sources, comes after the controversy of the 70 positive cases of Covid that were registered in the Billionaire club in Porto Cervo , an exclusive nightclub owned by Briatore on the Emerald Coast of Sardinia.

According to the newspaper "L'Unione Sarda-", on Monday night 52 more positives were confirmed among employees after knowing the results of the detection tests carried out in recent days.

The Billionaire had closed on August 17, in the middle of a confrontation between the former director of the Renault Formula 1 team and the mayor of the town of Arzachena, who had issued several restrictive orders in the fight against the coronavirus, including the music stops at midnight to prevent dancing.

Briatore, very critical of these restrictions, then decided to shut down, accusing the authorities of wanting to make nightlife the "scapegoat" for the Covid pandemic.

Around the same time, it was reported that an employee at this Porto Cervo club had tested positive. Shortly afterwards the figure increased to eleven, while the more than 50 employees of the premises put themselves into self-isolation at their homes.

The Billionaire nightclub-restaurant in Porto Cervo was opened in 1998 by Briatore and is one of the favorite places of millionaires, footballers and the jet set. The Billionaire Club has branches in Monte Carlo, Dubai and Marbella.

On August 15, Briatore participated in a football match at the Cala di Volpe hotel with other famous people, including Sinisa Mihajlovic, former player and currently coach, who had also tested positive for Covid a few weeks ago.
