The number of patients is much higher than in the spring, and intensive care doctors drop out of care, while the number of intensive care units for coronavirus patients should be increased significantly, said János Tamás László, chief physician at the Hospital Educativo del Petz Aladár County in Győr.

There are currently six intensive care beds available for coronavirus patients, but the number of beds should increase to thirty in a few days. In the Covid ward, the occupancy rate is 60 percent, in addition to caring for coronavirus patients, 150 patients go to the emergency department every day and 150 to 180 to the hospital’s epidemiology outpatient clinic, he added .
According to the chief doctor, this requires very serious forces and considers it probable that “there will come a time when we must stop. According to him, this moment could come very soon: the weekend or the beginning of next week.
