The president of the Hellenic Society of Intensive Care and director of the ICU of the Hospital “Evangelismos”, Anastasia Kotanidou, put an end to the rumors about the drug from America arriving in Athens for Archbishop Ieronymos, diagnosed positive for the coronavirus.
In a conversation with journalists, Ms. Kotanidou categorically denied that the Archbishop had received a special medicine that came from the United States.
“No medicine came from America”
“There is no medicine that has come from America for one or the other archbishop. The treatments followed by all the patients in Greece during this period were followed by both Archbishop Ieronymos and Archbishop Anastasios.” And fortunately one has already gone home. and I hope that very soon the other one can leave, “said Ms. Kotanidou.
The most probable is that tomorrow the archbishop will be discharged from the hospital, while, according to today’s announcement, “his health is developing quite satisfactorily.”
When asked about the availability of ICU beds at Evangelismos Hospital, Ms. Kotanidou said that we have free beds at the Hospital. In fact, yesterday we did not receive any presentation ”.
For his part, the commander of the hospital Anastasios Grigoropoulos, when referring to the medication received by the Archbishop, was clear. “When we talk about those things, we have to be serious and responsible. The only ones who can talk about it are the treating doctors.”
Konidaris: The Archbishop received and is receiving appropriate treatment
“The Archbishop of Athens and all of Greece, Ieronymos, has received and continues to receive the appropriate treatment that is followed for coronavirus patients of this age with the same history. In his case, that is, the same protocols were followed and are being followed for each COVID-19 patient, who belongs to the same category of patients, ”says the director of the Press, Information and Communication Office of the Archdiocese of Athens in APE-MPE. Harris Konidaris, after relevant questions.
He continues: “In any case, the Archbishop himself would never accept a” specialized “or” privileged “treatment, both for his capacity and, mainly, for his character. In all aspects of his path and path, Archbishop Jerónimo walked and walks with the same rights and the same obligations that every citizen has in this place. And so it will continue. Because he believes that. Because he mainly believes that his health and his life have the same value and the same weight as the health and life of each one of our fellow men. But, the satin he wears makes him, obviously, like any clergyman in our country, a more convenient and easier target for a few, but a variety of snipers …
He then points out that “scientists, but also other assistants, agents, analysts, commentators and all kinds of critics, species, unfortunately, endemic to Greece, who neither know the medical history of the patient nor control him personally, since they are not treating physicians “. It is good for them to dedicate themselves to any of their jobs and not wander into the public sphere their ignorance, irrelevance and fiction, along with the insatiable desire to promote them. Because the only thing that “manages” to spread false news on such a sensitive issue is to engender the monster of populism, poison society itself and divide, especially at such a critical moment that they only come together around common principles. “And values that we follow as Greeks, we can overcome, as we will achieve, this national test of the pandemic,” he concludes.
