Health Minister Vlad Voiculescu announced that there are currently more than 1,600 intensive care beds for COVID-19 patients in Romania.
"We talked about the numbers of those admitted to ICU. I want to emphasize that the transport of the critical patient over long distances is risky. This is not a solution to be applied flatly, it is a solution only where there are no alternatives. It is extremely important to make the most of the material base and qualified human resources where they exist", Vlad Voiculescu told a Sunday's press conference.
He also said that one of the priorities is to supplement the beds in hospitals with a tradition in the treatment of chronic diseases: Fundeni Hospital, Fundeni Clinical Institute - with a number of 70 oxygen beds and 14 ICU beds, which are available or in preparation, the Bucharest Oncology Institute - 5 ICU beds and 5 beds for acute therapy are available.
