The family of 71-year-old Juan Antonio Manrique had put him âin a bubble.â In the midst of the pandemic, this chronic kidney patient required dialysis three times a week, and was considered high risk from the coronavirus. âHe was very weak,â explains his daughter Encarnación. âWe couldnât even celebrate his 50th wedding anniversary.â Juan Antonio was forced to get in an ambulance every other day to go for his dialysis, which he received alongside other patients. It was a half-hour journey between Roquetas de Mar (AlmerÃa) and the capital of the province, a trip that he also shared with other kidney patients. He ended up catching the virus and died after developing Covid-19, as did the other three patients with whom he traveled in the ambulance. It is not known whether the vehicle was the point of contagion.
