The number of hospitalizations of people with coronavirus infection is growing and the situation is almost identical to what the Czech Republic faced in the spring. This was stated by the government commissioner, epidemiologist Roman Primula.
Formally, the current epidemiological situation in the Czech Republic can be considered the second wave of COVID-19. This was stated in an interview with Deník on September 13 by the government health commissioner, the epidemiologist Roman Primula.
So far, there is no explosive increase in incidence, but the trend is such that in two or three weeks the same number of patients can be in hospitals as during the spring outbreak, explained the specialist. On average, 10 more people are hospitalized each day than the day before.
The incidence rate per 100,000 inhabitants in the Czech Republic is one of the highest in Europe (more only in France and Spain). Spring he fears that if the epidemic continues in this way, the stationary system will reach its limit. Another problem, he said, is that beds for COVID-19 patients are unevenly distributed across the country.
The number of new cases can be reduced only if mass meetings are completely abandoned for a month, provided that people strictly observe the mask regimen, believes the epidemiologist.
According to the Czech Ministry of Health, during the last 24 hours, the number of new cases of COVID-19 was 1,539, 534 more than the previous day. The total number of infected has reached 35,933. On the night of September 13, 288 residents of the country were in hospitals. 456 people have died since the start of the pandemic.
On September 13, the Austrian government announced the start of the second wave of coronavirus.
An outbreak of COVID-19 coronavirus infection began in late 2019 in China. March 11, 2020 World Health Organization announced distribution coronavirus pandemic.
