this is life on the frontlines of the
pandemic our cameras are rolling as
these first responders in Manchester
Connecticut prepare for a Kovach 19
emergency call paramedics Andrew Hedberg
and Kyle Caldwell are throwing
themselves in harm's way to save lives
94 7
each team member begins today with a
quick check of their temperature when a
call comes in they spring into action
but in these dangerous times they can't
rush into the house if possible as they
demonstrated for us they asked the
patient to come to the front door either
keeping a safe social distance while
gathering information spit coughing a
lot trouble breathing once they
understand the emergency is Koba 19
related they meticulously suit up in
their protective gear the crew then
transports the Kovac patient to a local
hospital there's little downtime back at
base where they need to prepare for the
next patient after every call we go on
we decontaminate our entire ambulance
starting with our stretcher we spray it
down with disinfectant spray until the
next call
