The first to get sick was the 89-year-old who after a few days in intensive care was unable to survive, after a few days his son also discovered he was positive and in a short time his conditions worsened until it was necessary recovery. Carlos was intubated for 42 days but eventually his body didn’t hold up and he too died in intensive care.
The 57-year-old was one of the many doctors involved in the fight against the coronavirus, he had been in contact with several sick people, always using protections. The doctor treated many patients in nursing homes, despite the risk he never shirked and for all of them he was always available and available, the family tells Daily Mail. Perhaps it was he who infected the father who probably developed the symptoms of the disease before him given his advanced age.
