It appears a small town in Italy has outlawed illness.

Mayor Antonio Torchia of Belcastro in the southern region of Calabria has ‘ordered’ people to avoid contracting illnesses that require medical assistance.

The provocation is aimed at highlighting the town’s inadequate access to healthcare. 

“Its one of those classic hill-top towns… more than half of the 13,000 residents that live there are elderly. He is worried about another Covid, or something like that that spread through his town like wildfire.”
