Death from Covid-19: compensation in the private accident sector recognized.

The Court of Turin therefore recognized the right to compensation of the insured and his heirs and / or beneficiaries for infection with Covid-19, which was traced back to the "fortuitous, violent and external" cause necessary to qualify as an accident according to the conditions of the insurance policy.
