These frontline doctors defeated the corona virus. They spoke first about their experiences and recovery after the crown.
– Considering that when I got sick, that was the moment we learned a lot. My course of illness was as we expected. If you do everything right, you are more likely to overcome this disease. Of course, the recovery process takes another three weeks or even a month, says Stevavnović.
The first thing people must understand, he added, is that there are no people resistant to this disease.
– That means that everyone can get sick, whether they are healthy or have other diseases. So if you don’t call a doctor right away, you risk the disease getting insidiously worse. When symptoms such as shortness of breath and severe unproductive cough occur, then it is a clinical picture that will certainly require hospital treatment. In addition, it happens that people forget that they had a disease and do not follow the advice given to them at discharge. Therefore, they are at risk of complications later on. It all comes down to how much we will respect our body and allow it to recover from the disease, explains Stevanović.
Dr. Grujicic mentioned that she regularly checks for antibodies, but also that she follows all guidelines regarding recovery.
Every morning, the Infectious Disease Clinic wakes up to patients who are also in the hallway due to overcrowding, then they are transferred to other hospitals, explained Dr. Stevanović.
– Sometimes we have 10 percent of free beds at the end of the day and sometimes only five. It is too early to talk about relieving hospital capabilities. We have patients who are on artificial ventilation for up to 40 or 50 days. But the Kovid hospital in Batajnica came as reinforcement at the right time. We have gained a significant capacity in which a large number of patients in very good condition can be treated in a controlled manner. It will not significantly relieve our capacities, but it will give us the freedom to work without pressure, where we can now find free beds – says Stevanović.
This morning, a new covid hospital was opened in Batajnica, and the first corona virus-infected patients with a moderate and severe clinical picture were placed in this health center tonight, after 8 p.m.
The Kovid Hospital in Batajnica has an area of 18,000 square meters, 930 beds, of which 680 in semi-intensive care and the rest in intensive care. The hospital has nine spacious rooms with 30 to 40 beds each, said this morning the director of this health institution, Dr. Tatjana Adzic Vukicevic. After the epidemic, the hospital can also be used for other purposes, because it also has a delivery room, but also an angiocardiography room.
In the last 24 hours in Serbia, the coronavirus was confirmed in 7,782 out of a total of 22,497 tested. As a result of the covid, 69 people died, which is a new black record for the number of deaths. There are 270 patients on respirators.
By far the largest number of infected people are still in Belgrade, 1,975 of them, and you can read about the situation in other cities in a separate story.
