Francesca Colavita, one of
three women researchers who isolated the coronavirus at Rome's
Spallanzani Hospital, is to be hired on a full-time contract
after years in precarious employment, sources said Thursday.
The other two women, Rosaria Capobianchi and Concetta
Castilletti, already have full-time permanent contracts at the
Rome infectious-disease hospital.
The Spallanzani is treating a couple of Chinese tourists and
a young Italian man who have the virus.
