A 14-year-old boy died in Modena from the consequences of the covid. To turn the spotlight on Mario’s dramatic story is Antonio La Mura, acting mayor of the Campania municipality of Sant’Egidio del Monte Albino, the town of origin of the boy’s family. “I learned the terrible news of the death, in Modena, of a boy of just 14, whose family comes from Sant’Egidio del Monte Albino. It is the very young Mario Ruocco”, reads the post. “Mario became ill with Covid. He overcame the infection, fighting like a lion for 90 days, but was unable, although he was negativized, to overcome the dramatic consequences of the disease on his internal organs. In this moment of inconsolable pain, I want to publicly express the moved closeness of the entire community of Sant’Egidio to dad Antonio and mum Olga. Condolences which I naturally extend to the whole family, in particular to grandfather Mario Ruocco and grandmother Antonietta Marcone, our dear fellow citizens “, he adds.
