The woman, with fever and cough for a week, before being hospitalized at the Dimiccoli di Barletta was sent home from the emergency room in Trani
The cardiologist: “We lack tools and staff” – Antonella’s story was told by the “Corriere del Mezzogiorno” of Bari, which states that the woman did not suffer from particular pathologies. A cardiologist, Peppe Carpagnano, who is on duty in the same hospital where the woman died, intervenes on the matter. On social media, the doctor writes that “after a 12-hour night shift” you come “home destroyed” and you receive a message from your colleague to inform you that the patient you told him about is dead “. The cardiologist points out that” we have no staff and adequate tools “and” it was probably the ineffective measures to counter the virus that killed it. ”
Between Trani and Barletta – According to the reconstruction of the newspaper, the woman, after a week in which the symptoms of the infection were becoming increasingly evident, had been accompanied by family members to the emergency room in Trani, which would not be equipped to treat Covid patients. From here the woman was sent home. The next day, the family members contacted the referring doctor, who advised her to go to the emergency room in Barletta where, after a wait of 11 hours, the woman was hospitalized. For a few days, the family members managed to get only fragmented news about his health conditions, until the telephone call on Thursday communicating his death.
