According to Vinsas Janušonis, a doctor at Klaipėda University Hospital, the patient was already transferred to the hospital in a very serious condition. Until then, however, it was not exactly known that he had COVID-19.

“He was diagnosed with coronavirus in the isolation room of our hospital. She had a severe congenital disability and was overweight, weighed around 150 kg, “said the doctor about the serious condition of the patient.

The woman spent 16 days in the hospital, but her life could no longer be saved. V. Janušonis emphasizes that it was only when the patient arrived that her health condition did not give her much hope.
