A 9-month-pregnant young woman, a nurse in power and a police officer are just 3 of the 174 Romanians killed by coronavirus in the last 24 hours.
So we ended the week with grim numbers. Nearly 9,500 new illnesses today and therapy departments are overcrowded. Doctors note that more and more people are getting worse at home, although they initially had no symptoms. And the number of applications for difficult cases has increased by 30 percent compared to last month, says the ambulance.
Aurica Florin Balint was 55 years old and the head of nursing in the surgical department of the municipal hospital of Ineu. Diagnosed with SARS VOC 2 earlier this month, she entered the care of her intensive care colleagues, who unfortunately were unable to save her.
Monica Mang, manager of Ineu City Hospital: “He is the first employee to die from the virus and he has no known comorbidities. In the 25 years that I’ve been working with her, I didn’t know she was on sick leave, I brought her in and she went straight to intensive care. “
The nurse’s husband, a local policeman, is still hospitalized.
Also dramatic is the end of a 36-year-old woman from Craiova who died in the last month of her pregnancy.
The pregnant woman was transferred overnight by ambulance from a hospital in the region, without giving details about her condition. She arrived at the Maternity Philanthropy Hospital, where she was evaluated. The condition was found to be extremely serious, it had an oxygen saturation of around 46%, ”say the doctors.
In this case, the authorities have opened an investigation.
There is also mourning in the Timiş Police, where an officer was killed. His condition worsened a week after he was diagnosed and he was late to the hospital.
The latest report from the authorities speaks of 174 new deaths. Specialists say that this blacklist will continue to grow because there are now 1,149 patients in intensive care units. However, a total of 12,892 people confirmed with SARS VOC 2 are hospitalized.
Beatrice Mahler, manager of Marius Nasta: “More and more patients with high suspicion, but with low saturation, who come directly from home and need a bed, oxygen therapy, have often had a rapid evolution towards deterioration these days. . “
And since in ATI it is almost impossible to find a free place, in an attempt to help the sick, the doctors bring the oxygen tubes to the wards. This is how I found Constantin Costea at the “Instituto Marius Nasta”. His wife, also diagnosed with COVID infection, is also hospitalized.
“Good health for the doctors and I work hard to help us get through this ordeal. I get out of here and volunteer, we must be a little more empathetic, we must think of others so that we can all come to light,” says his wife , Emilia Costea, 68 years old.
Dr. Beatrice Mahler, manager Marius Nasta: “10 were discharged and 15 were hospitalized. We are reorganizing to provide a bed for each patient in need, because life is a priority right now.”
On the other hand, family doctors, who monitor asymptomatic or mild symptoms, assure that the health authorities have not published the new protocol for the care of these patients. Also, those who begin to feel unwell at home are taken to the hospital late.
Meanwhile, antigen tests have reached emergency units that will help doctors make a diagnosis faster. The tests are especially effective in patients who are at the peak of infection, that is, they are extremely contagious. In this way, they can be quickly removed from the green zone of hospitals.
Antigen tests will be used exclusively for critically ill patients in the Emergency Department. The state has bought 40,000 so far, but if they prove effective, another 3 million will be taken.
Prof. Dr. Carmen Dorobăț, manager of the Hospital for Infectious Diseases Sf Parascheva Iași: “From the samples we had at the hospital, we were convinced of the benefit that such a rapid test can have to determine the antigen. And we, specialists in infectious diseases, can go to risk areas, where we can advise patients, we can have good communication with those around them and we can perform such rapid tests. “
In the last 24 hours alone, 9,489 new cases have been reported.
