In the spring, another 109 hospital commanders were assigned to 108 institutions and 94 hospital commanders are currently working in 93 health institutions. Of these, 48 were assigned to the task by the police, 17 by disaster management personnel and 29 by the military, the MTI is cited.

The task of hospital commanders has not changed, said Zsolt Halmosi, adding that, above all, their task is to protect the supplies necessary for health protection, if the amount prescribed by the operational staff is not available, they should indicate. They are also responsible for complying with epidemiological regulations in institutions. In this regard, he said: 29,946 inspections were carried out, deficiencies were identified in 1,149 cases and actions were taken.
Not only existing capacities, but also capacity expansions are monitored by hospital commanders, Zsolt Halmosi mentioned the increase in the number of beds as an example.

As of September, operational personnel had imposed 496 tasks related to the epidemic, 277 of which had already been completed. He added that these tasks affect not only health, but the entire spectrum of defense, including the National Center for Public Health and the Ministry of Human Resources, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Innovation and Technology, the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of the Interior. 15 people work 24 hours a day.

He added that health institutions upload their data to the central system at 12 noon, based on which 29,158 people were hospitalized in Hungary at noon on Wednesday, of which 7,691 were confirmed to have coronavirus. Infected patients can have 20,766 beds. Another 1,764 people were suspected of having a coronavirus in hospitals and had not yet received test results by Wednesday noon.

An opposition politician, citing a letter posted by a public doctor, asked whether hospital workers also didn’t see the information, such as how many free beds were available at the time. According to Zsolt Halmosi, the intensive care doctor does not see where there is capacity for free intensive care beds in the country, because that is not his job.
