“It just came to our knowledge then. Compared to what it was on Thursday October 15, this figure has tripled (it was 31). The number of cases in Klaipeda, if we look at October 5 to 11, was 42, from October 12 to 18. – 98. This does not mean that there will be no more, because the disease has been confirmed, there is data that the number of cases is increasing every hour ”, says Raimundas Grigaliūnas, Director of the Klaipėda Department of the Health Center Public.
According to R. Grigaliūnas, between 0.5 and 0.8 percent took place in September. more recently, from October 8 onwards, the number of investigations has increased considerably until October 11. it already registered 1.85 percent. Research volume increased to 3.3% from October 12-18. According to the Office of Public Health, the critical limit is considered to be 4 percent. investigation. According to R. Grigaliūnas, growth is worrisome as it is rapidly approaching the critical limit.
Another worrying fact is the patient interfaces. Far from everyone cares about transparent fireplaces.
“We have about 24% of the unrelated cases. They are not related to the chimneys, they are new, these data, from October 2. There were 27 chimneys in the city in the morning, there are about 20 in educational institutions, 3 in institutions of health, 3 in sports institutions and 2 in other places (various companies, etc.) The main means of dissemination are extracurricular activities. In other institutions – activities of art groups, various meetings, when people from different institutions participate “, says R. Grigaliūnas.
According to the specialist, many times people do not even know when they communicate that they will soon receive a positive test result, so the virus is transmitted by asymptomatic patients who do not expect to be infected. V. Grigaliūnas does not hide that some people who have become distributors, even if they feel similar to the symptoms of colds, do not take them seriously and continue to communicate with people.
According to R. Grigaliūnas, one of the greatest dangers remains the work of one person in various workplaces. And some people simply put themselves at risk when they misuse protective equipment.
“See you in the city, in various places, on buses. And operating through various institutions, we have cases related to basketball. Importers do not have a great impact, as we can see, the main differential is in place ”, explains R. Grigaliūnas about the current situation.
Perhaps the most worrisome educational institutions have already undergone a number of changes, some are already learning remotely and some students, kindergartens and teachers are in self-isolation.
The government, based on primary awareness, assigned the Klaipeda district to the yellow zone. Klaipeda is not yet in the critical danger zone, but it is believed to be a matter of time before the city is quarantined. For the municipality, this is a signal to decide what restrictions would be useful so that they do not end between cities where the number of patients exceeds the danger limit for as long as possible. The government, after announcing which municipality corresponds to which area, will also provide information on what obligations and restrictions await the population.
Vinsas Janušonis, director of the Klaipėda University Hospital, agrees that the tension is gradually increasing.
“It just came to our knowledge then fights patients, 3 of whom were in the intensive care unit. The situation of a patient is very complicated. Six people receive oxygen. We try to discard those that may be isolated or transferred to Abromiškės. Some districts did not solve the transportation problem, so we did it ourselves. The number of patients grows daily. A few days ago we vacated the psychiatric ward, we vacated 15 additional beds, and today we vacated another 30 wards in the internal medicine ward. In fact, we now have 105 beds, “reported V. Janušonis.
Actually, according to the professor, around 80 to 90 individual patients could be treated at the same time in the hospital. Some patients are admitted to the hospital for entirely different reasons, arriving for elective surgery or other elective care.
“We had a mother, a case imported from Sweden. She gave birth. The woman was at the party with the emigrants. Another case is related to the pathology of pregnancy. Still, the situation is a little better than in other cities Today I spoke with Kaunas, the hospital will be full soon, they have about 60 patients, ”says V. Janušonis.
The head of the medical institution says that the situation is managed, the laboratory is working, the means today are sufficient. Furthermore, the planned aid is not canceled.
V. Janušonis says that he has problems with the bedding of the sick; Since July, it has not received at least 1/12 of the expenses of patients infected with the virus from the sickness funds. According to the doctor, the benefits for the hospital were granted only in the context of universal quarantine. According to Janušonis, the virus is causing financial problems.
After the government announces the re-entry into force of the quarantine, according to Janušonis, the hospital should receive financial support from health insurance funds.
