The 43-year-old man who was hospitalized for coronavirus in a clinic in the City of Buenos Aires recorded a video from inside the room of the health center. There he is seen and heard interacting with a nurse who asks when they will bring the food and if there is sushi for dinner.
"You don't know what time they bring me food, don't you? Is there sushi, no, no?" The man consults and laughs. In this way you can see the good mood of the patient and how he is treated.
The person, who had traveled to Italy, was isolated at the Swiss Medical Center in Barrio Norte and was later transferred to the Sanatorio Agote, of the same medical group.
The man who, as Clarín could find out, lives alone in Puerto Madero, had been between February 19 and 21 in Milan, and between 22 and 29 of the same month in other cities in Italy. He had also visited the city of Barcelona, in Spain. He returned to the country this Sunday, the date on which he made the medical consultation after having a fever, cough and sore throat.
"The man has collaborated intensely with all the authorities. He remains interned. He was in several places in Europe, but mainly in northern Italy. He is a passenger who traveled in first class, " said the Minister of Health of the Nation officially this afternoon, Ginés González García, at a surprise press conference. This last data is not minor since it limits possible contagions.
The minister also assured that the man completed the form requested by the health authorities at the Ezeiza International Airport. "Many times not even the patient, who was collaborative, can determine it. As soon as he felt a symptom he resorted to a private establishment," he said.
