Appeal of health officials
In a joint press release, health officials from the nine federal states called on the population to comply with applicable measures throughout Austria to contain the coronavirus. At the same time, they asked for your understanding in case non-urgent surgical interventions in hospitals are postponed due to the crown.
Coronavirus not prohibited
“Hospitals in all federal states are currently facing a great challenge. In addition to the care of Covid patients, carriers must maintain medical care for acute illnesses and other urgent treatments,” said the broadcast. This situation could also push a very good healthcare system to the limit. Therefore, it is important to prevent the spread of the virus by reducing social contacts, wearing face-to-face masks and maintaining distance: “The virus does not stop at borders.”
The fight against the virus can not only be won in hospitals, but above all through personal responsibility and solidarity at the doors of hospitals.
