A young man in Burgas died after a long hiatus between various hospitals. He was diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia, but after his death he was diagnosed with a coronavirus, BTA reported.

The 36-year-old was initially treated at his Obzor home. However, in the middle of last week, his condition deteriorated drastically: he began to breathe with difficulty and called an ambulance. His mother said they did not get out of the ambulance for almost an hour and that the family used their own transportation.

“When we got here we went straight to the family doctor. He was almost bruised with difficulty breathing. They tried to help him. They immediately gave him intravenous calcium gluconate, they gave him Urbazon. They gave us documents to take a photo,” said the mother of the patient. .

After the photo, it was clear that the man had severe bilateral bronchopneumonia. With the completed documents they went to the Burgas Hospital Emergency Service.

A rapid coronavirus test was also done, which came back negative. Therefore, the patient was referred to the Lung Hospital. However, he was also not accepted for treatment there. The management of the health institution will review the case, but complained of a serious lack of beds for patients.

After 4 hours of waiting, the man was admitted for treatment at the Meden Rudnik complex hospital, where he died.
