The future secretary once again defended the reopening of some 1,500 beds in the SUS network (not just the mayor’s office) that are closed in the city.

To face the pandemic, it is projected that it will be necessary to reform health posts, summon professionals for teams, as well as replenish the network with medicines. According to Soranz, the network faces problems. The basic network would lack 46 essential medicines, which will have to be replaced.

There is also the expectation that new tests for the disease will be acquired. In the coming days, Soranz will also have to meet with the City Council, to learn about contracts with suppliers and the situation of outsourced human resources. For now, the new government does not plan to close the Riocentro field hospital.
