Coronavirus: 'Life will live' in bed

A patient infected with Novel Coronavirus or Cavid-19 with severe respiratory distress was admitted to a hospital in New York, USA last Friday. The 40-year-old was in critical condition. Life support was in full swing. But with so many patients coming in, the pressure on the ICU continues to grow. Dr. Mangala Narasimhan then laid the patient on his back. This trick works like magic.
