Video / Albanian doctor in the USA: I will take the test tomorrow. Here’s

Andrin Sadikaj is an Albanian doctor who lives in America and is working at a hospital near New York. In an interview, he said that the most affected ages by coronavirus are over 70 years old and that the most vulnerable are those over 60 and who have other health problems.

He confessed how difficult it is for patients as they cannot communicate with their relatives.

Dr. Sadikaj says that many patients do not initially understand the problem with breathing, so he and other doctors are forced to monitor it as they risk intubation.

Asked if he had any signs and if he would take the test, he said he would take the test tomorrow at 1 p.m., for sure.

-Are you scared? The journalist asks News 24 and the doctor answers:

The biggest fear is that since we have families, we can inadvertently transmit it, but when I go home I try to take off my work clothes and put them directly in the washing machine, and go straight to the shower to minimize the possibility of infecting family members. . I am personally engaged and we have received donations. We were given 95 masks with air filtration scales because we had deficiencies. The irony of this is that everything is produced in China. I have been living here for over 6 years.

-Are there other Albanians?

Here is an Albanian doctor in the emergency department and a doctor in the psychiatry department, but in other hospitals there are many Albanians who are working and helping patients with coronavirus.

-Trump announced the removal of funds for the WHO, how do you see this?

I agree with that. The WHO should have been more serious and signaled much earlier than reported by the Chinese.

In the end he showed the dressing process before entering the patient’s room.
