A Hungarian professor of medicine became a member of the British Imperial Order

In recent weeks, proposals have been made to change the name of this order, as Britain no longer has a colonial empire. But a tradition in England is difficult to change. Members can write the letters MBE after their names, indicating that they have been awarded.

Professor Szakmány graduated from Vörösmarty secondary school in Érd and later became a doctor of anesthesiology at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Pécs. He came to England in 2004 to gain experience, worked in Liverpool and was informed there that layoffs were planned at the university clinic in Pécs, so he decided to stay out. Five years ago, he became a physician and then head of the seriously ill ward at Gwent Hospital in Wales. Soon Cardiff University also reclaimed his expertise, inviting him to become a professor.

Anesthesiologists were assigned an extremely important role in the outbreak of the coronavirus epidemic, and Professor Szakmány became the Welsh coordinator of hospital care for critically ill patients. His queen was recognized for her effective work when she became a member of the Imperial Order on her merits.

Tamás Szakmány gave an interview to Szeged Television a few weeks ago.

At the same time, he was also interviewed on Answer Online. In this, he highlighted, among other things, that

Against the virus, we mainly buy time for the body. If the body is in good condition, careful care can help patients get through difficult times.

He also spoke at a professional forum in October, comparing Welsh and Hungarian intensive care, how many more doctors, nurses and specialists come to each patient there.
