The 72-year-old Viennese, who tested positive for the corona virus on Thursday, was transferred to the Kaiser-Franz-Josef Hospital in Favoriten around 12.30 p.m. “Today” was there.
“Today”-Reporter Florian Horcicka was on site in Vienna-Landstrasse and reports that the patient was picked up by an ambulance at the back exit of the hospital. “All paramedics and doctors wore masks and protective suits.”
With an ambulance and an ambulance, but without police escort, we went from Landstraßer Hauptstraße over the belt with flashing lights to Kaiser-Franz-Josef-Spital in Favoriten. Arrived on site, the patient was already expected by a medical team and taken to an isolation ward.
Authorities are prepared
“Today” has deliberately chosen to show the public transparently how professionally our authorities, doctors and rescue workers act in the event of a COVID-19 diagnosis – there is no need to panic. In order to preserve the privacy of the patient and the team, all images were blurred by the editorial team.
