[ad_1]

There are no conditions in Bergamo in Hungarian hospitals treating coronavirus patients, Péter Takács, general director of Szent János Hospital, told the Hungarian nation. Zoltán Szabad, president of the Hungarian Medical Union, is known to have told Népszava that many hospitals were already full of intensive capacities.

The CEO told the newspaper that

“There is not so much chaotic state in which the Government Office of the capital city of Budapest was in control with us today, and they were literally in awe of the military discipline experienced in the hospital and the professionalism of my colleagues.”

Regarding the prime minister saying yesterday that he could fill 32 to 34,000 hospital beds with Covid patients by mid-December, he said the government was preparing for the worst situation, precisely so as not to rush.

Of the one hundred and seven deaths, a total of six patients have unknown underlying diseases and data is being obtained on two deaths.

The CEO said 20 percent of its beds were also reserved for people infected with coronavirus during the summer. Since then, that rate has risen to 30% and then 40% according to a ministerial order.

Péter Takács emphasized that without intervention, in fact, there would have been more patients than free hospital beds in a few weeks, but the government has tightened epidemiological rules and capacity has been released. He said it could be seen in two weeks if the move was sufficient or if further adjustments were needed, but he hoped the trend could slow down a bit. Weaver sees that the situation is not critical.

This is now in view.

The general director indicated that of the 1,100 beds at St. John’s Hospital, 338 beds currently have coronavirus care, in which 200 patients lie. Fifty of these beds are reserved for those who enter the institution for other health problems, but they are also infected with a coronavirus.

The vast majority of the two hundred patients are moderate to severe, thirty of them receive respiratory support, but only four require classic intensive care, so they are those who receive mechanical ventilation under anesthesia and intubation, said the general director. He added that due to the fact that a patient is being ventilated, they may not need intensive therapy yet.

A crime against humanity was the family of the victims, according to the epidemiological delay in Bergamo

They have therefore approached the European Commission and the European Court of Human Rights.
