The following photo is published in a news website during the Covid 19 time! According to the publisher “In Bergamo, the part of Italy worst influenced by the coronavirus break out, coffins are overflowing neighborhood centers”. But in fact this photo doesn’t have to do with coronavirus. It is related to another tragedy that happened seven years before the Covid 19 crises.
