Since dawn last Sunday, the international judo referee and Provincial Commissioner of the discipline, William Rosquet, who was one of the first confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the province, has been at his medical discharge home.
After a successful recovery and a negative real-time PCR, the “Artemiseño” contacted him again by phone; and we learned that he is already at home, where he will remain isolated until 14 days after discharge; and under medical treatment with Interferon in alternate days.
“I still have to stay isolated for a few more days, until I am given another test and the result is negative. The doctors changed the protocol; and the Interferon should be received for a month every other day; so a nurse comes to my house and injects it to me whenever appropriate. I must say this medicine is magic, just the day I started with it, and the fever disappeared”.
"I want to take advantage of this space to tell the people in Artemisa, that I was not irresponsible, as it was said out there. Since my arrival, I took all the precautions at home; although, unfortunately, my daughter-in-law became ill -she remains asymptomatic- but if I had not taken the measures, it would surely have been worse”.
“Once again, I would also like to acknowledge all the medical, paramedical, and nursing personnel… all those who influenced my recovery and care. I do not know their names, not even their faces,due to the means of protection, but I thank them and all those who fight for life; their efforts and dedication.”
"Of course, I must thank those who cared about my health and sent me their greetings and good wishes; especially all those who encouraged me to win this fight; since the publication on the newspaper's social networks. Thanks to you, many of my friends in international judo learned about my situation; and learned about the work of Cuba for the health of the people.”
William Rosquet: “Life is the winner”.
