Please note that the worst hit region of Italy is the Lombardy region. Milan is located in this region. Milan the home of The Ikeda Cultural Centre for Peace, the largest Buddhist centre in Europe. Italy is home to the most Soka Gakkai members in Europe.
Japan is home to ten or twelve million Soka Gakkai members. Apparently, there is no protection from the epidemic (or from the worst nuclear meltdown in history) because the Buddhist gods have abandoned the land.
Nichiren has this to say,
"...Good demons (viruses and bacteria) are few because sages and worthies are rare in this world. One would therefore expect to find more victims of the epidemic among Nichiren’s followers than among the believers of Nembutsu, or priests of the True Word, Zen, and Precepts schools. For some reason, however, there is less affliction and death among Nichiren’s followers. It is indeed mysterious. Is this because we are few in number, or because our faith is strong?"
We will see how Soka Gakkai members fare. If it is anything like the fate that befell Soka Gakkai members in the Tohoko earthquake and Tsunami, there will be more affliction among Soka Gakkai members than the general population because they have sabotaged Nichiren Lotus Sutra Buddhism.
Sardinia, for the moment is spared. Corsica (France) which can be seen from the Northern tip of Sardinia (both in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea) has not been so lucky, one case has been reported. The island of Sicily has not been so lucky, experiencing several cases.
