Health Minister Maxim Stepanov said what the Health Ministry will do if 100% of beds are filled for coronavirus patients. Physicians must apply the classification protocol.
He said this during his speech in the Verkhovna Rada.
“After 100% of the beds are full, we will be forced to apply the triage protocol. With the priority of providing medical care to patients with high chances of survival,” said the minister.
