CHP Ankara MP Emir Murat held a press conference today, the first corona virus has specified the cases that appear before March in Turkey. As a basis for this
He showed us an article signed by Vice Minister of Health Shuayıp Birinci.
Emir’s study was published in the Journal of Population Therapeutics and Clinical Pharmacology published on June 3, 2020.
The published research aimed to compare the effectiveness of LINCOCIN® and AZITRO® in the treatment of pneumonia associated with COVID-19.
The study included a total of 24 hospitalized patients between the ages of 30 and 80 who were admitted to Tarsus Medical Park Hospital between February and March 2020.
CHP’s Emir said: “24 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 positive were treated in Mersin in February. The ministry announced the first case in Turkey on March 11. “This is a scandal, the deputy minister should not sit in that seat for a minute.”
“A SIMPLE WRITING ERROR”
Following this development, Şuayıp Birinci posted a statement on his social media account and said: “In the article I was one of the authors, the hospitalization dates of the cases were wrongly written as“ February-March ”instead of“ March -April “. Again, it was determined that only the expression of Tarsus was used as the location of the case instead of Istanbul and Mersin.
Birinci said that the correction text and the evidence document were sent to the editorial board and the editor of the magazine to correct the error, “In the process of the Covid-19 fight that our country continues successfully and sets an example to the world; It is tremendously sad that the studies we carry out with a focus on human beings are attracted to the political arena by a simple typographical error ”.
However, Birinci deleted her post on social media a few hours later.
Here’s the post Birinci posted on social media and later deleted;
DECLARATION OF THE ‘SEVEN’ BY MINISTER KOCA
Following the removal of the Birinci post, a ministry statement, this time signed by Fahrettin Koca, was released late at night. The statement included the following statements;
* Today, in some media organs, our Vice Minister Dr. There were complaints about the article in which Shuayıp Birinci was one of the authors, and it was a matter of explanation.
* In the corresponding article, the hospitalization dates of the cases were inadvertently written as “February-March” instead of “March-April” by the responsible author. Again, it was determined that only Tarsus was used as the case location rather than Istanbul and Mersin.
“FIRST NOTICE TO PATIENT MARCH 25, 2020”
* It was known that the responsible author sent a corrective text and supporting document to the editorial board and editor of the magazine about the article and the board of the magazine informed that this correction would be made as soon as possible. According to our records, the date of notification of the first patient in the study, the object of the article, was March 25, 2020, and treatment began.
* We established the Bilimselarastirma.saglik.gov.tr portal at the beginning of the Covid19 process with the intention of supporting scientists to transfer our knowledge and experience to national and international public opinion in our fight against Covid19. As is known, the rules on access to data, ethical principles and the consent procedure for all scientific studies are clear. Our Vice Minister, Dr. Shuayıp Birinci and other authors followed the rules of scientific research.
* As I mentioned earlier, my Vice Minister, who is also a doctor, who took this process with great devotion and struggle, as an excuse for a spelling mistake made accidentally and in which the necessary attempt was made to correct it. I regret the efforts of Shuayıp Birinci and his colleagues to be eroded.
