It is Omicron psychosis in the country, with a real assault on pharmacies for rapid tampons and the purchase of self-tests.

And the madness took place in Ripa, in the province of Perugia, where on the evening of Christmas Eve a pharmacist was tested by an angry customer because the do-it-yourself tests were finished.

"I was swabbing - remembers the pharmacist, 41, interviewed by the Messenger - to the customers who had booked the unsanitary. Of course we have separate rooms from those of the pharmacy counter where drugs and over-the-counter products are served. minute we had seen this person fidget, ask, knock on windows. But I never imagined what happened would happen. I just walked out of where I was to tell him to stay calm. He wanted self-testing to bring to house. I simply told him that we didn't have any more. That they were finished. It was Christmas Eve afternoon. It must have been 5.30 pm. For that type of product, we, like all our colleagues, were overwhelmed with requests. Especially the days close to Christmas. Finding someone was not easy. Especially in those hours ".
So, after a while, the unexpected takes place. "I found him behind me - the pharmacist still remembers - he entered the closet where no one can enter. I swab the door and he arrived there. He took my head and hit me with a head. I was petrified. . And I remedied a wound in the cheekbone ".
