COVID Ward
A doctor rediscovered
di Giorgio Bordin
editore: Morellini
pagine: 140
Giorgio Bordin, health director and internist of the accredited private hospital ‘Piccole Figlie Hospital’ in Parma, tells of the experience lived on the front line in one of the hottest cities during the coronavirus pandemic, inside the special ward created in the surgical department, to give hospitality to Covid patients coming from the Public Hospital of Parma.Covid Ward was created within the department, telling stories, offering chronicles, scientific information, but above all focussing on the relationship between the doctor and the patient. A relationship that, in this completely new condition, makes the eternal theme of medicine re-emerge, best summed up in the gaze of the doctor, who is above all human, even beyond being a scientist.Every story is crossed by a basic leitmotif, an essential dimension in medicine, much needed during this pandemic, which can be summed up in one word: Hope.A Doctor Rediscovered is the one who rediscovered his vocation: not only to elaborate diagnoses and therapeutic formulas to cure the patient, but to be a guide and companion in the illness, taking care of it even when it seems to be unbeatable.Born out of Giorgio Bordin’s private and public experience, Covid Ward has taken in for itself the Master courses in Publishing at the Catholic University of Milan, which, thanks to the collaboration of students, former students and professors, have decided to take care of the publication of the project, supporting its promotion, distribution and sale, the revenues of which will be donated to the ‘Piccole Figlie Hospital’ in Parma.

‘Unità Covid’ nasce all’interno del reparto, racconta storie, offre cronache, informazioni scientifiche, ma soprattutto mette al centro il rapporto tra il medico e il paziente. Un rapporto che in una condizione del tutto nuova fa riemergere i temi della medicina di sempre, riassumibili nello sguardo del medico che, prima che uno scienziato, è un uomo.
