International media have reported a sensitive case of contagion by coronavirus in Italy, where a 22-year-old model continues to test positive for the disease after approximately 60 days. Local doctors assure that they follow the case closely, while she must remain in mandatory quarantine.
His name is Bianca Dobroiu and, on February 28, she had to be admitted to the Bologna city hospital, after reporting 40 degrees of fever and breathing difficulties. After taking the test, tested positive for Covid-19
Because she received timely treatment, and had no underlying conditions, she was discharged on March 6, but with the order that she should continue to be quarantined at home, since she continued to test positive for the virus, although she did not show symptoms.
Although the worst was over, the ordeal continued for the young woman, since on her own she continued to carry out tests to detect the pathogen. Until today, all of them have been positive.
“I was hospitalized for six days, then I was discharged because the fever had decreased”, explained to the Newsweek portal.
In this sense, Dobroiu added that it has carried out seven tests to detect the disease; in six of them it was positive and another (the fifth) gave a result that was “unclear”.
Luciano Attard, chief infectologist at the hospital, told CNN that the unit has been following this case closely, as no one else in Italy has tested positive for the coronavirus for so long.
However, the professional emphasizes that at this time the information regarding the pathogen is still scarce, so cases like these should not alarm the population.
“The patient is fine, but the tests continue to give positive results. We are studying your case carefully. As for us, no one else in Italy has tested positive for so long. In general, the positive results do not last more than four weeks “, Indian.
Through social networks, the young woman indicated that her problem at present is not the symptoms, but rather the long period of the quarantine that has her “on the edge”.
“This is not normal, and even more so since I have no symptoms since March 10th. Physically it is as if it had nothing, absolute zero. I am clearly weak sometimes, but after two months locked in the room I think it is also normal, “he said.
“Apart from this tiredness sometimes, not a finger hurts for a month and more, and despite that I still do not recover, I am still positive. But is all this normal? I would really like to know if anyone knows of a similar case, of someone who could give me a somewhat sensible answer. Sometimes I am afraid of dying, “he added.
For now, from the Bologna hospital they indicated that they will perform blood tests to study his case, although they made it clear that Bianca Dobroiu will have to remain in quarantine.
