A movie that doctors appeal to the actual situation of the hospital that has become a battlefield with the new coronavirus is being released

Even in the United States, where more than 10,000 people have died from the new coronavirus infection, New York is said to be the most infected. 'Tokyo is a New York a few weeks ago' and

A doctor walking in the hospital says, 'All patients here are COVID-19.'

'Our frustration is that we feel too much or too late. We all knew that we were' coming ', says a doctor in the emergency room. Colleen Smith.

A busy hospital is displayed. Dr. Smith is one of the few doctors who told us about the ER in New York City.

'The situation is getting worse today in one day.'

'We had to prepare frozen trucks for dying patients to save their bodies.'

'And somehow I'm running around trying to get an extra ventilator or

CPAP. With CPAP, I can turn the ventilator on to those who need it.'

Elmhurst Hospital, where Dr. Smith is located, received a ventilator from another hospital a few hours later, but only five. Within a week, it is said that there will be supplies again, 'She says five,' says Dr. Smith, desperate.

The movie was released on March 26, 2020, but at this point the representative of the public hospital in New York denied the fact that 'Elmhurst Hospital lacks respirators'. 'We will continue to supply supplies and personnel to Elmhurst Hospital,' 'Our top priority is to maintain the hospital system,' he told The New York Times.

'We have 5 ventilators. Unless someone dies, in 1-2 days we will be looking for a ventilator again. There are 100 ventilators I'm a lie. We've never seen it. '

As of March 26, when the movie was released, it was shouted that shortages would soon become a major problem, but at this time, doctors working at the forefront at Elmhurst Hospital had already complained of shortages.

'Many leaders said, 'Okay, but in our opinion nothing is okay. There's no help we need. Even the supplies we need to see patients. It's happening in the United States, one of the most fortunate countries. '

'Our hospital has a large capacity, usually about 200 people a day, but now it's 400 people a day.' 'The first thing we did was a cough and a hot patient Did not pay close attention to all patients by careful isolation, but afterwards, X-rays and CT examinations of people with no fever and chest pain showed COVID-19 positive It was shown to be '

'A CT scan when a car accident occurred and a patient was brought in showed that it was COVID-19.'

'I'm diagnosing a potentially COVID-19-positive patient without realizing it.' 'Many nurses and doctors are sick.'

'In such a situation, anxiety is very large.'

'Doctors want to have a test, even if they have symptoms, and it is difficult to get it.'

'I've been exposed to the virus many times, and there's really no equipment to do.'

'I put on my

N95 mask in the morning. Originally, I should change my N95 mask every time I see one patient, but I wear one mask all day. The mask is the same as it was on Friday, and everyone is always scared of the N95 mask shortage. '

The hospital is responding promptly to this situation, and tents are being set up outside of the hospital for mildly ill patients, but the pressure on medical care will not stop.

'I'm afraid that the patient's condition will worsen. Many young people are sick. They are healthy, non-smokers who do not smoke. They are in their 30s and 50s. They were ordinary people who never thought of becoming

The United States Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has promised to supply more supplies, but Dr. Smith has stated that 'there are many promises that would not be possible with the ER.'

'Many people say, 'Okay,' and 'the situation gets better,' but if this situation lasts a month, two, three months ... we're already worn. I haven't got it. '

'I don't mind if you get involved in the matter by responding to the interview, but know that this is a bad situation, people are dead, and there is nothing in the emergency room or hospital I want it. '
