Health Minister Fahrettin Koca makes a statement after the Coronavirus Scientific Committee meeting …
Highlights from Minister Koca’s speech:
” Our Scientific Council provides support as a guide. We are evaluating all the developments in our country. We have taken important steps to assess and activate local opportunities.
By adding voluntary restrictions to mandatory restrictions, we may reduce the transmission speed and shorten the duration of the restriction.
We increase our testing capacity. The total number of tests reached 20 million. The number of positive cases exceeded 1.5 million. Our hospitals and healthcare professionals are struggling to bear an increasing burden. Our intensive care units are under great stress.
THE NUMBER OF CASES INCREASED MORE THAN 5 FLOORS
In our country, there is an increase of more than 5 times in the number of daily cases and 55 percent in deaths compared to the previous peak in April.
Our number of cases continues to increase in Hatay, Adana, Samsun, Antalya, Mersin, and Ordu. Our hospitals and intensive care units are under great strain.
THE INCREASE IN CASES IS DECREASING IN ISTANBUL
The increase in cases began to decline in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa, Kocaeli, Konya, Sivas, Kahramanmaraş and Gaziantep.
THE VACCINE WILL BE USED 2 DOSES, IT WILL BE FREE
Delivery is scheduled for the next few days. Little by little, 50 million doses will arrive by now. The vaccine will be given in two doses, 14 to 21 days apart. It will be delivered to our citizens for free, it will be held in our health institutions, especially in family health centers.
The concrete steps to take will determine the short- and long-term reliability and effectiveness of the vaccines we will use.
Our conversations continue about the mRNA vaccine, a new and cheaper technology that has been tested for the first time in humans.
RETURNED CASES WILL BE ANNOUNCED
We will give the retrospective number of cases from tomorrow and the number of cases since July 29 in the table.
Intensive care occupancy rates for 9 provinces
We do not need the vaccine that can be delivered after April. We expect one or more of our vaccines to go live in the period after April.
Turkey’s top two, in many countries around the world within three months, have seen it to refer to the countries that have the most vaccines.
(Inactivated vaccine) We prefer it not because it is cheap, but because it is safe in this sense, because it is a traditional, natural and known vaccine method. We asked Pfizer how many vaccines they can administer, including April. They expressed a number, but we want it to increase.
None of us have the right to jeopardize the management of the epidemic for political or other reasons.
Citizens who have the vaccine will be registered by our health institution that has been vaccinated in the system and will be monitored from a central database.
We have significantly increased the number of radiation equipment. Now it has reached 16 thousand.
We do not consider that the vaccine is zoronized for now, we intend to convince you to vaccinate. The vaccine will be entered in the person’s HES code. We are not thinking of going in and out of some places right now. But in the process, it will come to light in this world. The vaccination requirement for airplanes, transportation may be questioned after a widespread vaccination.
(The vaccine from the Sinovac company) We will know the intermediate evaluation within a week and 10 days, currently around 5,000 doses were administered to 3,700 people, there were no serious side effects.
We see that constraints work from time to time. It is possible to say the full evaluation next week. There may be new suggestions depending on the course. Istanbul is one of the cities where the number of cases has decreased but the intensive care burden continues.
Our president had announced, including New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Eve is also included in the restriction. Increasing the number of days will determine the next week’s results and the course of the epidemic.
The number of positive cases among health professionals exceeded 120 thousand. The number of our health workers who lost their lives in positive tests was 216. All of them became martyrs of duty from this period.
I am very sorry that death figures are a matter of policy.
