Some private hospitals are preventing medical staff from using special coverage to combat corona
Mohammad Sharifi-Moghaddam (Secretary-General of Nursing), speaking to Ilna, spoke about nurses' need for high safety equipment in hospitals due to the coronary heart disease virus. To be high.
"The dimensions of the corona virus are still unknown, but what is known is the longevity of the virus outside the human body," he said. If the virus cannot be disrupted by the transmission cycle, the virus will be transmitted. In this case, the desk, the bus, the money, the computer, etc. will be the cause of the transmission of the virus. This depends on people's awareness of the severity of the disease in the country and the transmission cycle of the disease. Nurses or health care staff also need to have adequate supplies as people who are closest and most likely to face this cycle.
Sharifi Moghadam, in answer to the question of what equipment does this high security or safety clothing include? He replied: The whole body of a person must be covered, meaning shoes, special clothing, hats, glasses, masks and gloves. Of course, nurses in areas such as Qom have the prevalence of this equipment, but our concern is in hospitals where the patient is suspected or carriers and their incidence has not been determined.
"The patient has a fever or flu symptoms, but no special action is taken until he is suspected," he said. This is the most important concern for us and the treatment staff until the diagnosis, as our nurse goes to the patient's bed without the necessary facilities.
Commenting on some of the private hospitals that do not want to use masks, Sharifi Moghadam said: Some private hospitals do not allow their staff to use clothing and cover because they are afraid, if the hospital is suspected, other patients will be referred. Diminish them.
"The only security we have is our ability to adapt."
Saeed Nemki said after the end of Corona's technical and executive staff, "We have established a permanent staff as Corona's technical and enforcement staff, which includes all senior health and treatment executives and medical system training and related devices." There are executives.
He continued: "In this headquarters we look at the affairs of the whole country, we follow the bylaws and all that is needed in this headquarters. We also look at the problems and plans of our staff and colleagues at this campaign.
Referring to the establishment of the Corona Anti-Personnel Executive, the Minister of Health stated: "We have another Corona Anti-Personnel Executive formed by the President's order and the responsibility of this staff is with my servant and his secretary with one of my servants." We also submitted a report at a meeting of the National Security Council, where it was requested to impose some restrictions on access to some of the crowded spaces, with the council having an option to delegate the state executive's staff to the council. Some respected ministers, including the head of the judiciary, as well as the chief of staff of the armed forces, take action and take action as necessary.
"We were worried about the masks and detergents because we were likely to lack supplies due to overcrowding and inaccurate dealers whose bread was in trouble," he said. Let's go. But we've been thinking about it for a long time, and we've got enough masks and disinfectants.
Salt said: I send this message to the honorable people of Qom and provide and distribute to all Qumis families until the end of the night a pack of masks and disinfectants and educational brochures.
The Minister of Health also emphasized: From today on, we distribute the mask for free at bus and subway stations. During our meetings with the municipality and subway officials, disinfection of buses and subways is carried out. We also give people a free mask at the subway entrances.
He continued: The hospitals of the entire provinces are ready to treat patients, we also gather them all in one place due to the lack of patients in different hospitals and transfer the cases that were reported in different hospitals to the special hospitals that we have deployed. we do.
He emphasized: According to what I have just said, the vain terror that is created in people is false, and I tell people as a veteran health expert that coronary heart disease is far less likely to have both deaths and its pathogenicity than the flu. . In the United States, they have reported that 280,000 have been hospitalized for influenza b, and an estimated 16,000 have been killed in the United States.
Salt pointed out: We are currently at the peak of type B flu and the winter peak is in H1n1 flu, which was also reported in the fall, with our mortality rates well below our expectations.
"One thing in our people's minds about where the virus came from is the new coronary virus that was rife in China," he said of the corona virus originating in the country. The virus has been transmitted to us from carriers from China. Unfortunately, one of our fatalities was in Qom, a business that had traveled during the same period of pollution from indirect flights to China.
The Minister of Health pointed out that since 7 Bahman, when we had stopped my direct flights from China with the support of the government and with the support of the government, we had non-interstate flights. These measures had never been carried out in Turkey and the UAE, and they had not set up such surveillance stations.
"I also have to say that the information we tell people is transparent, up-to-date, and people don't trust other information. It may be a cold-sick hospital, but not all of them have coronary disease," said Salt. My colleagues will test suspected patients on two or three occasions and let people know if they are sure.
"When we had a problem with the kits, we had designed the diagnostic method at our Pasteur Institute," he said.
"The transparency of our information system is excellent," he said. I just received a news story about coronary artery disease from South Korea, when 9 South Korean travelers in the occupied territories returned to their country but returned to their home country and reported that they had no cases to date. We have the best health infrastructure.
He also stressed that people should pay close attention to health issues and avoid touching and touching. I beg the people of Qom to refrain from traveling to other cities. We believe our people are understanding We are investigating from various places we find that the cases that are positive are mostly of Qum origin and we urge the people of Qom to observe this. Prevention is the best way to fight the disease Again, I urge people not to pay attention to the news other than the news they've received from my fellow contributors.
"The only security we have is our ability to adapt."
A member of the Majlis Health Commission stressed the need for greater coordination of government agencies with the Ministry of Health.
Semnan People's Representative Ahmad Hemmati and a member of the Majlis Health Commission in an interview with Ilna correspondent, in response to the question whether quarantine cities where the coronavirus is widespread are on the agenda or do they insist on this? He said that in this regard every institution should perform its duties. This is not enforced by bidding. The Ministry of Health has a specific task, but other agencies also have a duty to cooperate with the Ministry of Health.
He added: "If the virus has started in Qom, all the machines in that city must work together to prevent the outbreak, so that the virus does not spread from Qom to other cities." Imitation authorities, clergy, government agencies, and the government all have to work together. If anyone or any agency is to exercise its discretion, all Ministry of Health's management, scientific, and bachelor's programs will be ineffective and will be called into question. Apparently this is not coordination and, consequently, the efforts of the Ministry of Health may not work.
Hemmati continued: We cannot continue our plans with the same routine and new actions need to be worked on.
A member of the Majlis Health Commission said that the closure of cities was delegated to the Ministry of Health by the Supreme National Security Council. The Ministry of Health is obliged to make decisive decisions and declare that there is little weakness in this sector.
He added: "There should be no personal comments on the current situation." This is a scientific issue and the ways to control it are clear. Non-biased opinions should not be involved in decision making.
"Unfortunately, there are abuses in these conditions," the MP said. We see examples of hoof masks. The authorities should take serious action in this regard. This is, in addition to the violation, a national security threat in the current situation.
Concerning the possibility of closing schools and universities by the end of the year, Hemmati said: "This is also one of the cases where there is no cooperation. Some schools have closed, some have not. Some one week and some two days. Kids and teens in schools may have less health. The matter must be decided immediately.
