A 13-year-old COVID-positive boy, a
foreigner but with a regular stay permit in Italy, has been
forced by his family to sleep in the car in Perugia so as not to
infect his parents and two sisters aged two and nine, local
media reported Thursday.
The boy, who is asymptomatic, was subsequently offered a bed in
a COVID hotel at Città di Castello where he will stay with one
of his parents.
He had been forced to sleep in the vehicle because the family
flat was too small to permit self-isolation.
Perugia social policy pointman Edi Cicchi told ANSA the case had
been solved with the cooperation of the local health agency and
the Umbria regional government.
He will now stay at the Villa Muzi COVID hotel with his father
staying in another room, Cicchi said.
