When the news portal Žmonės.lt contacted Gytis, he said that when very strong symptoms appeared, he decided not to take any risks.
“Our daughter Aiša got sick – she developed a very high fever. Since it reached as high as 39 degrees, we didn’t wait and immediately went to the hospital,” G. Volkavičius told the news portal Žmonės.lt.
After tests were done, it became clear what happened: “We trust the specialists, so we decided not to wait in lines and went straight to the infectious diseases hospital. There, the necessary tests were performed, after which the doctors diagnosed bronchitis and an ear infection.”
Currently, Gytis and his wife are taking turns caring for their daughter.
“Now she is undergoing antibiotic treatment. Aiša is constantly receiving an IV drip, so we take turns looking after her – sometimes me, sometimes her mother. At the moment, I am the only one in the hospital with all the children, later my wife will replace me,” he explained.

He also mentioned that the incidence of illness among children is very high, even during the warm season.
