“We’ve been around it for two years, now it’s here.” To speak is Lino Banfi who, at 86, announced that he was positive for Covid together with his wife Lucia Lagrasta, to whom he had dedicated some moving words to Pope Francis, hoping that the two will die together, because “if you die first, I can’t do it” . At the moment the conditions of the couple are good: he has a little cough, while she is fine. “We found out by accident. The doctor came home for a blood sample for my wife and told me: “Lino, you have been abroad, let’s do a swab for safety” », Lino Banfi told I smiled.
“I went to Canada, to Toronto, to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award and it seemed right to check, even if I got to 86 swabs! Really, I did the count. Now I have a nose like a boxer. We both tested positive, we have to wait for it to pass “the actor said, adding that, when she knew she was positive, “Lucia was almost happy.” “” Thank goodness, we took him together, otherwise we would have had to stay apart, one on one side and one on the other “,” said his wife, who has been tied to Lino for 70 years – 10 as engaged and 60 as marriage.
“We were two very good masons: I directed the works, she chose the right reinforced concrete and the right bricks and we built a solid and anti-seismic house. And, until a few days ago, also anti Covid », Banfi concluded, happy to be able to dispose of the virus and to spend the quarantine together with Lagrasta.
