The President emphasized that the principle of priority, based on the age qualification, remains: the priority is given to people of the older generation.
Taking into account the systematic decline in the incidence of coronavirus (the average daily rate is 29 cases), the network of infectious diseases hospitals continues to decline. The hospital in Dubossary was closed. The hospital is returning to standard functionality. There are two COVID patients left there. The state of health does not allow them to be transported to another hospital. They are isolated and will continue their treatment at the Dubossary hospital. In total, there are four coronavirus hospitals in the republic. Taking into consideration that their capacity is less than 20 percent occupied, infectious diseases hospitals are gradually being phased out on the basis of the Republican Hospital Department departments. Vadim Krasnoselsky urged not to rush to zeroing the bed fund of the COVID profile in the Republican Clinical Hospital, so as not to overload the Slobodzeya hospital. The President emphasized that patients increase in no case should lead to overestimated load and as a result deterioration in the quality of medical services.
