«Federico is well and tomorrow he will be subjected to a blood test by the ASP of Reggio Calabria. The withdrawal will then be sent to be processed at Spallanzani in Rome.” This was stated by the mayor of Villa San Giovanni Giusy Caminiti regarding the conditions of Federico Amaretti, the 25-year-old seafarer in mandatory quarantine for having been on the KLM flight where the woman who later died from the virus was also found.

«Federico – added the mayor who spoke to him by telephone – has never had symptoms attributable to Hantavirus; tomorrow, like the other Italians present on that flight, he will be subjected to tests ordered as a precaution by the Ministry of Health and the samples taken will be transferred to Spallanzani. Our fellow citizen will continue the quarantine as per the provisions of the Ministry of Health.”
