A 61-year-old woman with no known prior medical conditions has been admitted to the intensive care unit at Meir Medical Center in Kfar Saba in critical condition due to complications from Type A influenza. The woman, who had not been vaccinated against the flu, was hospitalized three days ago and subsequently connected to an ECMO machine, which supports heart and lung function.
Dr. Michal Katzir, Director of the Infectious Diseases Unit at the hospital, stated that the woman was rushed to the hospital after five days of severe flu symptoms at home, including high fever and acute shortness of breath, with no improvement. She was sedated and put on a ventilator. During the night, her condition deteriorated further, leading to her being connected to the ECMO machine.
