Francesca Totolo had written that a 24-year-old Bengali, who had landed in Lampedusa three weeks earlier, had been hospitalized in serious condition in Padua for diphtheria. She argued that the man could have come into contact with hundreds of people and that several outbreaks of diphtheria had already occurred among migrants along the migration routes. Totolo also criticized those who, in her opinion, claimed that it was Italians who infected immigrants. #difterite #immigrazione #salute (translated)
