The life of a 57-year-old surgeon from Mažeikiai Hospital came to light on Wednesday. The doctor is reported to have died of coronavirus.
Sigitas Kaktys, director of Mažeikiai Hospital, stated that the doctor working at her hospital felt ill on 20 November.
“He was admitted to our hospital fight section. On November 25, due to his condition, which was not threatening at the time, we decided to transport him to Šiauliai Hospital. From that day on, he was treated at the Šiauliai Republican Hospital, “said S. Kaktys.
COVID-19 is often claimed to kill the lives of people with comorbid illnesses. “We all have luggage and a backpack that we carry; I had complaints of respiratory illness. But these were not major complaints. In my opinion, he worked and operated successfully, the patients were satisfied with his work. He realized himself before the disease, “said S. Kaktys.” He did not work directly with fighting patients “.
The interlocutor is open: until the last minute, the colleagues of the sick surgeon hoped that this time fate would be merciful both for them and for the patient.
“But sadly, this virus is so unmanageable and its ways are unknown, so despite treatment, a colleague’s life has not been saved. We are going through a very difficult time at this time, – said S. Kaktys. – Hopefully this case helps to understand those people who are still talking about the absence of the virus today, says that doctors are not responsible. It works very badly for us. “
Vytautas Kasiulevičius, a professor at the Vilnius University Faculty of Medicine, spared his beautiful words for an eternal colleague.
“Families of COVID-19 victims generally open themselves to walls of silence and generally ask not to communicate, including doctors, so I can’t do it without listening. I don’t know the family, as men often do. , I only knew him, wrote V. Kasiulevičius on Facebook on Wednesday night. – My colleague has gone out today. COVID-19 mercilessly kills those to whom you have not been able to tell everything. In November 2017, he wrote me a message and soon reached the Lithuanian medical movement full of ideas and faith that we can change everything. He sincerely believed that the system could be reformed, and perhaps I was his opponent too often on those sleepless nights of our online chats between vision from a liberal healthcare system and a social democratic one. How much time and energy it took her to travel from the other side of Lithuania to our meetings, rallies, visits to the government, but she never said no. The social activities seemed like a d Being so natural and inevitable that I often felt uncomfortable living in Vilnius and not being able to spend time anywhere. And now that cool man is gone. Eventually even apologizing too late, but we will still meet there and discuss everything. Rest, colleague, “wrote V. Kasiulevičius.
The Lithuanian Medical Movement (LMS) also reported the death of its board member on the social network. “Today, the Lithuanian medical movement has lost you. You, an active member of the Board, participant in debates and generator of ideas. You wanted so much to change, to change. You connected LMS to JGA and you achieved it! Youth and wisdom … And then When the second wave of the pandemic broke out, you seemed to say: “Forgive me, I will not participate in today’s debate, because a little fight… ” Fight…. And behold, you are no longer. Forgive us for not being able to save you. We and all of us did very little, we couldn’t help them, wrote the LMS representatives. – Medike! Can we be protected by law in the performance of our duties and infected at work? Today, we all see it: this is a great occupational hazard. Dangerous working conditions. And here is a senseless death while on duty, because someone was cynically thrown into the fire by barefoot and naked doctors … This death hurts us a lot. Will we be humbly silent for a long time? “
