This woman was admitted to hospital in early December for Covid
-19 infection. Her state of health quickly challenged the medical teams: "This was the first time we had confronted a young person, with no known medical history, a priori vaccinated, and who was developing a form of remarkable severity in its severity," explains Professor Djilali Annane.
The intensive care unit teams then carry out numerous tests to detect a possible disease unknown to the victim, without success. On the other hand, it is by testing antibodies that the mystery is solved: the woman had presented a fake vaccination certificate. Unfortunately, it was too late to change her treatment and the fifty-year-old died shortly after. "We are never angry with her patients but when we were revealed that she had not been vaccinated, we better understood the progress of her clinical history."
According to Professor Djilali Annane,
if the medical teams had immediately been aware of this lack of vaccination, the story could have been different, with better adapted therapeutic management. "If we had the information before it was placed under ventilation, we could have treated it with neutralizing antibodies, something we obviously had not thought of, because it was vaccinated for us. We cannot guarantee 100% that this would have changed the course of its history, but we know that these treatments reduce the risk of making serious forms "
Djilali Annane expresses her anger towards those who drew up the false certificate: "To all my colleagues, really: especially no false certificates! It's not a service to the people who demand them. False certificates not only do not protect against the virus, but they make people lose opportunities. When a false certificate is issued, the person is deceived."
