The chart shows how this gap was recorded among all age groups.
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 May 2023, roughly 84.7 percent of the total Italian population was fully vaccinated.
The virus originated in Wuhan, a Chinese city populated by millions and located in the province of Hubei. More statistics and facts about the virus in Italy are available here.
