No visitors, no carers: Malaysian doctor says PUIs are suffering from loneliness in isolation

Wednesday, 01 Apr 2020 01:47 PM MYTThe days are quiet and lonely for many suspected Covid-19 patients who are stuck in isolation wards awaiting their test results. — Picture from Facebook/silver.zahin

Their contact with hospital staff is kept as brief as possible and the medical team usually goes into the quarantine wards twice a day to administer treatment and perform check-ups. “Only Allah knows the suffering that they’re going through. And as for me, I can only do the best that I can,” wrote Dr Redza.

With a heavy heart, Redza often had to tell them that the results were not ready yet and urge them to be patient. Redza said due to the Covid-19 crisis, no amount of begging could change the situation and the “no visitor” rule had to stay in place.
