Storm on the virologist Roberto Burioni, accused of bodyshaming against a young supporter of the League .
The doctor is in fact reproached for having made fun of the girl's physical appearance , who on Twitter had commented on a post by Burioni himself referring to the deputy of the Carroccio Alex Bazzaro.
Going in order: the parliamentarian was defined by Burioni as "an irresponsible disinformer" after Bazzaro had declared himself against the fourth dose of the vaccine ("I will run the real risk of not doing it", said Bazzaro).
Replying to Burioni's tweet, the young Northern League supporter commented: "I am proud that there are people like Alex Bazzaro in the League".
At that point Burioni replied by posting an enlargement of the profile picture and, probably referring to her physical appearance, commenting: "I understand" .
The virologist then deleted the tweet and apologized: "It was not my intention ."
But there was no lack of criticism, even from the political world.
“The expert Burioni laughs at a girl who is a supporter of the League on Twitter. What are you referring to Burioni? Is there something wrong with that photo? Remove the tweet and apologize ", the hot reaction to the story of Giorgia Meloni, president of the Brothers of Italy .
"Burioni's tweet is the most vulgar and shameful thing there can be. A full-blown act of bullying, a phenomenon that must instead be opposed with the utmost resolve by everyone, institutions, politics, and even doctors", commented Laura . Ravetto , member of parliament from Matteo Salvini's League.
And Salvini himself spread a tweet, hard and terse: "Do you understand what? That you are a little little man ?".
