I like me a rare steak, but that looks barely cooked at all
We eat a lot of raw meat in Europe. And that's the kind of rare steak you'll get not only in Italy, but also in France, UK and elsewhere. We also have dishes like tartare and carpaccio which are just straight raw meat.
That's disgusting. And I'm not saying that from personal preference, I'm saying that from a modern understanding of food borne illness and parasites.
Nope, it's completely fine to eat cow or horse meat cooked like that (but not ovines, pigs or birds). It's very common in Italy. Never heard of food poisoning from this kind of meat. I do hear of food poisoning from chicken meat or seafood, though, as they are more prone to host dangerous parasites. I would still carefully select the meat vendor or restaurant, though.
