The Hindu
The Ittigegud resident was under aggressive intensive care owing to lung infection
After spending 104 days in two different hospitals battling COVID-19 in the second wave, Murugesh, a resident of Ittigegud here, was discharged from the hospital after finally testing negative. The lengthy fight against the virus and the successful recovery from an acute condition has become a sort of a case study for doctors, who have described it as one of the rarest cases of recovery after prolonged ICU stay, suffering from severe complications due to COVID-19. Though he has been discharged, his ordeal is still not over as he has to overcome the serious damage caused to his lungs. Murugesh, 42, who is into wood works, has to be on oxygen support for at least a month. Out of 104 days of hospital stay, he was under aggressive intensive care for 93 days. The determined fight of doctors and nursing staff is highly commendable, said the patient’s family.
