As a staunch no-vax supporter he had waited until the end before going to the hospital, where he then refused treatment by tearing off his oxygen helmet and dying a few days later. Today, a few days after mourning, the boy's whole family, a 28-year-old from Terracina (Latina), is infected and some, the father and another relative, are hospitalized.
The belief in the ineffectiveness of vaccines and the low danger of the virus led the young man to worsen by postponing his hospitalization. Upon his arrival, the doctors put his oxygen helmet on him but, as a convinced no-vax, he tore it off, saying he didn't need it. The doctors patiently explained to him what he was risking and eventually convinced him to put it back. But, unfortunately, that wasn't enough.
The 28-year-old arrived at the emergency room in Terracina on January 16 and was diagnosed with SarsCov2 infection and severe respiratory failure. The next day he was transferred to the Goretti hospital in Latina in the Covid Intensive Care Unit, but his conditions had further worsened, leading to his death.
“Unfortunately when the no vaxes arrive at the hospital they are not at the first symptoms, they arrive already in serious condition because there is the denial of the disease. It is essential to get vaccinated and go to the hospital at the first symptoms without waiting too long ", the appeal of the dg of the ASL of Latina, Silvia Cavalli.
An appeal which, evidently, did not decide to follow the boy's family, whose father had already been hospitalized in serious condition in the same days. Today the brother, mother and girlfriend are also positive.
