Santara Clinics in the Lithuanian capital have published photos from the frontlines of the country’s fight against the novel coronavirus.

“The wait, the anxiety, the preparation,” according to the photographer, Vidmantas Balkūnas. “The first diagnosed cases, and then – a carousel.”

“One day replaces the next, one set of patients replace the others,” he wrote in the hospital’s press release.

In the photos below – scenes from the departments of infectious diseases, intensive therapy and reanimation at the Vilnius’ hospital first assigned to deal with coronavirus patients in Lithuania.
