New and severe COVID-19 patient deaths.
With the spread of new confirmed corona19 cases, the ‘bedroom crisis’ is becoming a reality.
According to the Accident Recovery Headquarters on the 19th, only 48 of the 573 seriously ill patients can be admitted the day before, with only 8.4% of them. Regarding the number of beds alone, the number of beds increased by 3 more than the previous day (45), but considering the increasing trend of confirmed cases, it is true that there is not enough space for the beds.
As of today, 13 beds are available for immediate treatment of seriously ill patients, including 8 in Seoul, 4 in Gyeonggi and 1 in Incheon. As the government and local governments focused on expanding beds, the number of beds available for use increased by nine from the previous day (four), but it is only one digit per region, which is not enough. . Beds in non-metropolitan hospitals are also insufficient to serve the rapidly increasing number of patients. be be. In particular, in Chungbuk, where 103 confirmed cases were recorded at 0 o’clock today, there is no immediate bed to treat critically ill patients. Daejeon, Jeonbuk, and Jeonnam also lack hospital beds.
Currently, there are only 12 treatment beds for “quasi-critical patients” that are likely to get better or worse in severe stages. In this situation, the number of patients with severe gastric disorders is the one that changes the most daily records without decreasing. The number of patients with severe gastric disorders rose rapidly after crossing the 100 mark on day 2 (101) and skyrocketed to 205 on day 15. Since then, the situation is getting worse, from 226 people → 242 people → 246 people → 275 people.
Reflecting this, deaths that died during Corona 19 treatment or confirmed after death also register in double digits for five consecutive days (13 → 12 → 22 → 11 → 14) from the 15th to the present day. Inside and outside the medical community, there are observations mixed with concerns about whether the “bedroom disruption” caused by this third pandemic has begun.
According to the quarantine hospital admissions data ‘Corona 19, deaths awaiting all’ distributed the day before by the Central Defense Response Headquarters (Bangdaebon), people were waiting for quarantine beds at home or waiting for all beds from quarantine in a nursing hospital at 0 o’clock the day before. There were a total of 8 patients who died. Excluding the two who died during the ‘first pandemic’ in Daegu and Gyeongbuk in February and March this year, six people died this month.
