Yup, for a much smaller population, A LOT more of them die every year from common cold/flue due to their much older population:
60.5m - population of Italy
61 000 - Italian deaths yearly from common cold/flu
372m - population of U.S.
65 000 - U.S. deaths yearly from common cold/flu
Even before SARS-cov2, anyone could tell Italy would be hit hard, with U.S. not far behind until later in season.
