Although Miklós Kásler wrote in his ministerial instruction that a patient infected or suspected of being infected by a coronavirus should not be taken to children’s hospitals, it turned out that there was an exception in this case.

Coronavirus: the second wave

Half a year after the spring outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, the second wave of the pandemic has arrived. The radical increase in the number of infected is forcing more and more countries to re-impose restrictions, despite the fact that the world economy has not even recovered from the effects of the spring outbreak. According to the posters, the second wave also reached Hungary. Follow our news!

The Minister of Human Resources, Miklós Kásler, issued an instruction on the epidemiological procedure on Monday. The document establishes that patients infected or suspected of being infected with a coronavirus should not be admitted to the National Institute of Cardiology, the National Institute of Clinical Neuroscience, the National Institute of Oncology, children’s hospitals, psychiatry, obstetrics, geriatric unit, or unit for diabetics, immunosuppressed and disabled.

The fact that children’s hospitals appeared among the exceptions was noted by health expert Zsombor Kunetz, among others. He wrote about it from his community side: “He practically included active euthanasia in a ministerial decree, even for children. After all, children who are infected with Covid or have symptoms similar to this infection cannot be admitted to any children’s hospital. “

In this regard, we contacted the Ministry of Human Resources. In its reply, the Ministry drew our attention to the fact that the instruction contained a half sentence: “except in the case of a different ministerial order.” According to ministerial order

In the event of confirmed Covid infection, the Paul Heim National Pediatric Institute and the four medical universities provide care for children with coronavirus, as well as patients requiring PIC care.

It was also added that if Covid-19 is suspected, all inpatient facilities must properly isolate the patient and perform a coronavirus PCR test to make a diagnosis and then arrange for the patient to be transferred to the designated facility.
