No nation has felt the brunt of the COVID-19 like the United States, but before it arrived stateside, the disease ravaged Italy. It was the first nation in Europe to lock down to prevent the virus from spreading further and doing even more damage, but the nation has still recorded more than 233,000 known cases and at least 33,600 have died, according to Worldometer.
Now, three months after the lockdown began, Italy is finally looking at easing lockdown measures to the point of welcoming tourists from Europe back.
But even before the borders can open again, some are already thinking ahead to the future.
