The 6th wave of the COVID-19 pandemic: Pregnant woman rapidly deteriorates and is intubated and sent to the ICU.

COVID-19 cases surge again as Taiwan faces simultaneous increases in COVID-19 and flu cases. The number of patients in major hospitals and clinics has significantly risen, with waiting areas filled with people seeking medical attention. The CDC estimates that this peak will likely occur earlier, around mid-July.

In response, Dr. Shih Jingzhong from NTU Hospital’s Obstetrics and Gynecology Department posted that a pregnant woman in her mid-term contracted COVID-19. After being admitted to the hospital, her condition rapidly deteriorated, requiring intubation and transfer to the ICU for treatment.
