The deputy minister proposes admitting patients with symptoms to a hospital even without a positive PCR test
“The feeling of chaos in the health system is not true. We are working in a special pandemic situation.” This was told to BNR by Dr. Boyko Penkov, Deputy Minister of Health.
He said that as a doctor he lived on the front line during epidemics, but because of the flu, and the situation was as dire as it is now.
“During the summer, analyzes were done, they are done constantly. The government has made efforts to negotiate vaccine prophylaxis. Bulgaria participated in the negotiations at the European level for the supply of medicines. Different scenarios were developed: how to react to the system with the appropriate number of people. Many things are being done and are being done. We are working at high speeds. “
“The problem is not in the hospital structures, but in the staff. Our doctors and nurses are older, they have chronic problems, they fear for themselves and their loved ones. Now legal texts are being created for the displacement of people, for the relocation … At this level of contagion there is still a reserve for current decisions. We are looking at the contagion curve, there are other structures that may be involved, the issue is staffing, “added Dr. Penkov.
He assured that he will make a proposal in a hospital to accept patients with symptoms and without a positive PCR test, which will be specified later in order to reduce the number of people who died due to untimely hospital care.
