weak and weary. the staff try to get the patients moving again. up to half of the patience on this road will end up needing intensive care support. it's so frequent that the staff here at clack, of university hospital has set up special pathways that go underground straight from this world. to the i see you doctors here say currently around a 5th of the people admitted with coven, don't make it out of the hospital when i remember our 1st wave, we had most sleep, very other people. and a lot of them, in fact, died at to day. age of patients is different. we have patients who are 40 at 50 years old. there's an ongoing discussion in poland about whether the reluctance to be vaccinated comes from longstanding, lack of confidence in public institutions. a hangover from the communist era or

8:20 am
december last year. and in the 1st 3 weeks, we received as many as 4 and a half 1000 applications. so it means that 4 and a half 1000 of our employees have been vaccinated. while private initiatives like that might have a local effect. increasing vaccination rates needs a nationwide effort. poland has passed the unwelcome milestone of a $100000.00 covey deaths and with the low vaccine take up. and with the 5th wave looming, hospitals like this one worn, the number of deaths will spike again. ah, the pandemic as fostered a growing public interest in science and research. our reporters have been interviewing specialists to gain insight from bare expertise on the corona virus. this time christina christner is talking to marilyn otto, head of infectious diseases at the university medical center hamburg epin door. we
8:21 am
want to know which methods have been effective in treating coven 19, and when they're used to pop up with our under soon as i'm it integrating. professor otto great to speak with you that has been don't meet on our show. we look into treating cove at 19 cases above your research or of infectious disease, but also treat patients or clinic as it's an if most i festival, a general question you built and how do you treat covert patients admitted to the hospital network. but in the clinic, i espionage, christina, up to one, and the various factors play a role. here it is wide spectrum of patients who have gotten cells covey to. and of course, the treatment depends on the severity of the illness technique. and there are those that come to the emergency room with a runny nose off to having contact with someone who has the corona virus, but otherwise have no symptoms there since they sent back home to recover from what's otherwise just a cold quieter than a kid who globules a lot depends on the patient, nathan, if someone has risks with accesible,
8:22 am
severe illness and needs to be hospitalized, then they would be admitted as an impatient. over non maria treatment options range from support of therapy such as reducing a fever and increasing fluid intake. depending on how the patient feels good, whether the example oxygen is required, then other measures may be necessary given to allow us to purchase any current magnet covers will be the can treatments. are antiviral medications to fight the virus itself and medical maintenance. you will stand anti inflammatory drugs which are sometimes helpful in the later stages of the disease. and if there's an inflammatory reaction and continuously arkansas on monday coming. so the treatment depends on the patient and the regular severity of the illness, each beer and where they are in the cause of the disease. so are they in the early phase or has the progress either? and so there are many possibilities, like it's not in america. the, i'm the how, with modes of treatment developed over the course of the pandemic and what's been
8:23 am
learned from the outcomes. we happened and i'll get a flyer. and in the ange, it's been an interesting process learning by doing for player 2 years ago. at the start of the pandemic, we didn't have any medications available because none had been specifically developed for it. and we tried drugs with an anti viral effect used to treat other diseases who also an anti parasitic leverage. seattle broke. we're talking about hydrox, klara quinn, ivr make tin orem desa via visa via on happens to relent. studies were conducted and showed that some of these drugs were of no or only marginal benefit demand and but now drugs have been developed monoclonal antibodies which fight the virus and can be given early on. largest studies have been carried out and shown that dexamethasone has a very good anti inflammatory effect that wound up. so we already have a more extensive range of treatment options compared to what was available at the beginning of the pandemic. when cache treatments differ based on whether someone's
8:24 am
vaccinated or not in their leader? natasha i. there is no single answer with me. now. a cox feel it all depends on the individual patient and the severity of the illnesses soon. i plan with high risk patients. other therapy options would be discussed with you. the only point of differentiation is the administering of monoclonal antibodies happen if someone is fully vaccinated with good antibody levels. antibody treatment wouldn't be considered. yeah. and also even, but for those with risk factors, while a severe illness is like cancer page since who haven't developed any immunity, then when administered early monoclonal antibodies are a very good option of guns food separately, getting my red one doll soon. it is now that we also know that the effectiveness of the vaccine differs depending on the virus variant muffin is the particular
8:25 am
variance also affect to us to which medications and treatment so used. hold on. good. yeah, i did. i did. yes. via antiviral drugs and monoclonal antibodies don't work full variance, how much was it on? for example, there are antibodies that work well against delta, but not against a micron, and vice versa, because of the must be getting data woodworking, i'm a so it's certainly a factor of the cat at a doubt because one, i know not on a studio according to a study from the university hospital where you walk as if there were indications that even a moderate case of a cove it leaps, traces on organs or an organ. and could you elaborate consensus? canola annoy time. this is and jeff, i'm the studio the else and have sent home. it's a very interesting study led by our cardiology center of, of the 400 people who were mildly or moderately ill. he used to be a lighter and to leave them in a 7 hour examination, the study team looked closely at effects that may not be clinically apparent,
8:26 am
but are still detectable until all as well. so coolness, i'm come, reflect hugely, upon instant armor. they looked at the kidneys, heart, lungs, and veins on the leg when divine view, about 9 months after a corona virus infection that they observed and measured slight reductions in the organs functioning, hall, and quantum on the hedge, on that in oregon light, i'm showing this needs to serve as a warning against the attitude. oh, let's just catches and tightened our food us and it needs to be taken seriously. and patients should continue to be monitored after they've recovered or, and of, you know, pilots in math organ my do my address. but what do i handle to point out that these findings should not alarm people, and i'm seeing that 9 months difference as could still be detected. the. but this will still be the case in the long term must be investigated further,
8:27 am
not by counters will overrule wisdom in the early days of this whole pandemic that answer evidences and but this is undoubtedly an important indication that the heart, lungs and kidneys can be affected griffin, couldn't, must nicholas man nicotine conquer this is the of the good news is we didn't observe any neuro cognitive problems in the study groups. colton. backups kind of figure. oh, professor, professor ardo, thank you very much for taking the time to talk to us with that. my pleasure. greetings. from hamburg some work in uganda, only 13 percent of the population is fully vaccinated and there's a supply shortage to contain the spread of the corona virus. the government enforced one of the strictest locked down. so in the world, the public health care system is still overwhelmed with
