Brazilian nurse with COVID19 reunited with her baby after giving birth on ventilator
RIO DE JANEIRO - Brazilian nurse Rusia Goes gave birth while unconscious and breathing through a ventilator tube in April as she battled severe COVID-19 symptoms."Only God knows how much I missed that little one, who had been inside me, and all of a sudden was taken out because of all of this," she told Reuters in an interview on Monday.
While she normally works as a nurse in a neonatal intensive care unit, Goes stayed home once the coronavirus outbreak started. But her husband Ednaldo Goes suspects he may have transmitted the virus to her as he continued to go out to work and shop for the family. The baby tested negative for the virus and was isolated from Goes, who was transferred to another hospital as her condition worsened.
