The pandemic was a hard time for many. It was in March 2020 when the entire world came to a standstill and governments worldwide decreed lockdowns due to the rapid spread of covid-19. Unfortunately, many people bore the brunt of the disease, one of them, the actor Antonio Resines. The Los Serrano actor was admitted to the ICU for more than 40 days and that was a particularly dark stage in his life and in the lives of those around him. Now, almost four years later, he has opened up about it again in an interview with El Español.
Serious, ironic and ironic, Resines has a personality that has managed to captivate many. That’s why hearing him talk about one of the worst moments of his life still makes many people’s hearts ache. Infecting coronavirus forced him to remain admitted to the Gregorio Marañón Hospital for 48 days, 23 of them in a coma. It was all due to severe bilateral pneumonia. Next February 10 will mark two years since the day he was discharged from the hospital, and he has spoken openly about it.
The actor assures that he is mentally “bad”, but assures that this does not worry him. Physically, he assures that he is much better. “It was difficult for me to recover until the summer of 2022, especially to walk well, which I couldn’t. I think that if I have a problem it is because of age, not because of Covid. For a while, my thigh area did feel numb, I “They said it was a pinched nerve because of the posture I had when I was in a coma, because I wasn’t moving,” he begins.
“I’ve had a hard time, but when you recover you see what happiness is,” he reflects to the aforementioned medium. “It’s horrible when something hurts you in your normal life, but when that goes away it’s wonderful and you realize what does matter,” she says. On the other hand, Resines assures that she remembers everything about his hospital admission. However, he says that “there were things that I imagined, that were not true.”
“I said they were hallucinations, but they were delusions produced by the medication, which is curing you, but at the same time they are causing all that,” he begins by explaining. “I lived in a parallel reality. I knew I was in a hospital, but I didn’t know what was happening. I was convinced that they had put a microchip in me and that they wanted to kill me. I was a little crazy and that scares you,” says.
The actor claims that for a time it was difficult for him to control his own mind, as well as his words. “It happened to me a lot that, when I wanted to say something, I knew what it was but not how to say it. I mean, if I said: ‘I want you to bring me that object,’ because if I didn’t see it, I didn’t know how to tell you what object it was. And I also said Real nonsense and I had no filter. But well, as I said with some grace, nothing was happening,” he says.
The truth is that the interpreter had a near-death experience, as the specialists revealed. “The doctors told me that I had between 95 and 98 percent of having hit her. But in the end it was not like that. So I was freed thanks to public health,” he says, making a plea for those who saved him. Regarding whether he is currently afraid of catching a cold, flu or illness, he explains that “curiously not.” Finally, he reveals that this made him approach life “the same way.” “What I do know is that the situation I was in is not to my liking. I don’t wish it on anyone, I assure you, not even the biggest son of a bitch out there, of which there are some,” he concludes.
