If it has indeed changed that it would weaken would be an inevitability, because viruses like to live on. To continue to multiply. So this type of change should have been anticipated. And expected. I'm adding an additional link so we get a better understanding of what the doctor actually stated and the fact that his statements were the result of a study done in hospital.
1- New coronavirus losing potency, top Italian doctor says
“In reality, the virus clinically no longer exists in Italy,” said Alberto Zangrillo, the head of the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan in the northern region of Lombardy, which has borne the brunt of Italy’s coronavirus contagion.“The swabs that were performed over the last 10 days showed a viral load in quantitative terms that was absolutely infinitesimal compared to the ones carried out a month or two months ago,” he told RAI television.
So, clearly there is some around, but, it's infinitesimal.
Zangrillo said some experts were too alarmist about the prospect of a second wave of infections and politicians needed to take into account the new reality.
Zangrillo said some experts were too alarmist about the prospect of a second wave . Not all, obviously, since some experts were rational the world over. while the irrational alarmists got all the coverage.
“We’ve got to get back to being a normal country,” he said. “Someone has to take responsibility for terrorizing the country.”
"We've got to get back to being a normal country. Someone has to take responsibility for terrorizing the country"Yes, someone does. And someone should. Including here in Canada. I've got some names for that list.
The government urged caution, saying it was far too soon to claim victory.
* Guess we know who has been terrorizing Italians..
“Pending scientific evidence to support the thesis that the virus has disappeared … I would invite those who say they are sure of it not to confuse Italians,” Sandra Zampa, an undersecretary at the health ministry, said in a statement.“We should instead invite Italians to maintain the maximum caution, maintain physical distancing, avoid large groups, to frequently wash their hands and to wear masks.”A second doctor from northern Italy told the national ANSA news agency that he was also seeing the coronavirus weaken. “The strength the virus had two months ago is not the same strength it has today,” said Matteo Bassetti, head of the infectious diseases clinic at the San Martino hospital in the city of Genoa.

2: Coronavirus 'no longer clinically exists in Italy', top doctor says
A study conducted at a hospital in Milan found that the number of viruses present in people who tested positive has decreased.
Dr Alberto Zangrillo, the head of Milan's San Raffaele Hospital in the hard-hit Lombardy region, said the new coronavirus has become much less lethal, with newly infected patients having weaker symptoms than a couple of months ago.
A study conducted at the San Raffaele hospital found that the number of viruses present in people who tested positive decreased significantly between March and
He said: "We've got to get back to being a normal country. Someone has to take responsibility for terrorising the country."
Dr Zangrillo said: "I say this well aware of the tragedy for those patients who didn't make it, but we cannot continue to give all the attention to self-proclaimed professors rather than actual virologists and hospital workers.
Dr Zangrillo said: "I say this well aware of the tragedy for those patients who didn't make it, but we cannot continue to give all the attention to self-proclaimed professors rather than actual virologists and hospital workers.
"In a clinical sense, the virus no longer exists. I am prepared to put my name to that statement. We've got to get back to being a normal country because the statistics show we have every capability of doing that."
Two doctors. One who has conducted a study. Both, doctors, offering up the positive and assuring information while the government mouthpiece continues on with the fear."Self proclaimed professors" leading the propaganda charge instead of actual virologists and health care professionals informing us? Why might that be?
