Jonscher 15

I took these photos inside the infectious ward of the Karol Jonschers Children's Hospital, Poznań. It was a time when epidemic armageddon caused by RSV and the next wave of covid was going through pediatric wards. All isolation rooms were then occupied by infected children under the care of a parent. In the corridor there are rows of cardboard boxes with overalls, spare beds. Some kids were treated with oxygen. Less than 2-year-old kid subjected to high-flow oxygen therapy. Only there were fewer ventilators here than in adults. But they also happened.

 

The photos would not have been made without help and kindness from the crew of Department VIII. Special thanks are due to prof. dr hab. n. med. Magdalena Figlerowicz and Karolina Samarzewska, MA, who agreed to the presence of a annoying man with a camera in their clinic.
