Error in the system! This is how doctors explain the fact that a patient died with a diagnosis of heart failure and later became ill with coronavirus. The test came out only after the patient’s funeral.

A week ago, Dimitar Lankov’s father was rushed to Pirdop hospital. He died two days later.

Georgi Lankov died on October 13 of heart and respiratory failure. Two days later, he was diagnosed with coronavirus.

“We buried him and when everything is over, they call my mother on the 15th that my father died of COVID and his test is positive, and within an hour we will be in the quarantine direction,” said Dimitar Lankov.

Dimitar himself has a negative test and wonders how first the diagnosis is one and then it turns out to be completely different. According to the doctors, the system is slow and when the results come out, the man is already dead.

“It was with him that the tests arrived a day late and we immediately notified the relatives,” said Julia Dimitrova.

According to Health Minister Kostadin Angelov, delays are sometimes due to the fact that the work is performed with extreme precision. The mayor of Pirdop explained that there is only one coronavirus infected in the entire city. But you have heard of cases in which relatives complain that they posthumously doubt the diagnosis.

“There were rumors across the country that money was almost received, but I have never seen anything like this,” Angel Petrov said.

And Dimitar Lankov remains in quarantine, despite his negative test.
