Adrian Streinu-Cercel, manager of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases “Matei Balş” of the Capital, explained that the patients “are treated in normal wards under the same conditions” as in Intensive Care, “except that they do not have ventilators.”
“It is unfortunate that these terms are being discussed in a context in which we are in the middle of a pandemic, in a context in which we should all have the same civic spirit of unity to end the circulation of this virus, in a context where there is order as clear by the Minister of Health that stipulates as clearly as possible which are the units in Romania that are COVID units and where patients, including intensive care patients, can be transferred to COVID beds. Because these COVID beds require circuits very, very special. You cannot take a patient out of a COVID hospital that needs intensive care and put him, for example, in a municipal or city hospital that is not COVID and does not have circuits, to contaminate the entire area “, Said Adrian Streinu-Cercel, Tuesday evening, in the “Politician File” with Silviu Mănăstire.

He states that he has asked “countless times” for a module to be created for doctors from other specialties who want to assist a mechanical ventilator, so “that we can provide support in other departments besides the Intensive Care Units.”
“People need to know that patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, that is, with this new coronavirus, die even in the usual wards, they do not necessarily have to go to intensive care. This intensive care thing is already such a pump or, well, a balloon that has been inflated at the moment, because that is where patients end up who are terminal. People need to understand that patients do not have to go to intensive care. They are cared for in normal wards under the same conditions as in Intensive Care wards, except that they do not have fans. In a very short time, sadly, we will have fans in those units. I have asked countless times for the creation of a module for other doctors, from other specialties, who want to attend a mechanical ventilator (…) so that we can provide support in other departments in addition to the Intensive Care Units. This has not happened until now ”, added the doctor.
