The problem in Italy was
1: because of the % of people over 65 and
2: allowing the younger populous to mingle with family member
In Japan, the country with the largest % of over 65, they implemented large scale testing and isolation of the at risk population and have coped very well with the virus (in comparison)
We should have tried to mirror Japan and not Italy

That's exactly what the rest of Europe should have done almost immediately.
Now we have the worlds economies crumbling, currencies crashing, exactly what China set out to do, just because we did not have a concerted effort.
Isolate at risk groups let the rest get on with it
