Private cars, ambulances, make their way past passers-by who respectfully open up a corridor to let the 'tarantism' sufferers through. Everyone wears white or black, because it was thought that colour might arouse the ire of the sick person, who might recognise the colour of the belly of the 'taranta' from which he had been bitten.
