At one point during the on-call time, the hospital also reached the breaking point of the oxygen system.
“No lungs – no breathing”
«I do not feel sorry for you, surprised that you feel so bad. Is it just the flu? To my knowledge, ordinary flu does not lead to massive pneumonia within a few days from the onset of symptoms, with over 50% of the disease being involved. pulmonary parenchyma and the development of acute respiratory failure, which older people with internists have no chance of surviving. (…) There are no lungs – no breathing, ”Karpowicz writes in a column published in“ Medyka Białostocki ”- a monthly magazine of the Medical University of Bialystok.

For families dying of hypoxia, it was also their 100%. a loved one who would have a chance not to fall ill if he or she undergoes a simple, painless medical procedure »- writes Karpowicz.
Another duty, after which she will go to the psychotherapist
The author of the column admits that some time ago he felt satisfaction when he was admitting sick patients who did not want to be vaccinated. He asked them about the reasons for this decision. He felt a kind of triumph that the scientists were right after all.

Karpowicz is not laughing when he thinks that the father or a close person of the anti-vaccine holder will be admitted for lung tumor diagnostics in a month, not a week. “I, as an oncologist, will have to tell them that the disease is so advanced that we cannot offer them anything but palliative care,” she adds.
The doctor noted that it was the next shift, after which he would have to go to a psychotherapist to explain to himself that he had done everything he could. Finally, he said that he did not intend to talk to people who would want assurances from him that they would not have any complications after the vaccine.
He also addressed the inhabitants of Białystok directly. «If in the next few days you need a location to hospital due to dyspnea in the course of Covid-19, you will be admitted only because you are lucky and someone will die on this bed in front of you and will slow down access to oxygen »- concluded Karpowicz.
