That is to say, these are large areas in which the beds are additionally placed in such a way that there is a large system of blocks where it will be possible to supply oxygen to the bed. places to provide intensive care units, rooms for medical personnel ”, explained the deputy director of the Ministry of Health.

He added that how much equipment is needed for a mobile hospital has already been determined. According to him, the problem is not so much in the provision of equipment as in the provision of medical personnel.

“With the increase in the number of medical beds, the problem of increasing the number of medical personnel will not solve itself, because the doctor is a profession that has been acquired over the years,” Lyashko summarized.
