The Ministry of Health is closely monitoring and coordinating the situation in hospitals with regard to COVID-19. Resort experts are in daily contact with medical facilities. In case of worsening of the epidemiological situation, reprofilation of the bed fund for patients with COVID-19 is prepared for three phases. Daily long - term analytical estimates suggest that between 1,500 and 3,000 coronavirus infections could be added in late September. The estimated daily receipts to hospitals for this period are between 75 and 100 cases. The majority of hospital hospitals are currently not vaccinated. I'm asking people who haven't been vaccinated yet not to hesitate. Vaccination protects against serious disease progression. By vaccination we will protect hospitals from overload, but most importantly, we will protect our health and the health of our loved ones. said Minister of Health Vladimír Lengvarský. The aim of the resort is to keep hospitals in the standard healthcare regime as long as the epidemiological situation allows. The reprofilation of beds will be divided into three stages. The third phase would represent the maximum capacity of health establishments. I believe that it will not come to this and, thanks to vaccination, we can avoid the worst crisis scenario in our hospitals, said Chief of Health Department V. Lengvarsky. The Minister, together with State Secretary Kamil Szász and Secretary-General of the Ministry of Labour Peter Ferjančík visited the hospital in Bardejov today, for patients with COVID-19 is ready. We also took advantage of our first and second wave experiences, so we could set up many steps in advance compared to last year, thank you to the entire hospital staff at the same time for the deployment, saidDirector of Hospital and President of Slovak Hospital Association Marián Petko.We will have eight regional coordinators all over Slovakia who will be closely monitoring the situation in hospitals in the region. said State Secretary of the Ministry of Health Kamil Száz.
