COVID-19 Romania: Doctors are already choosing the patients who go to intensive care

The COVID-19 pandemic hit Romania hard, since this summer the number of cases has been constantly increasing, and the reopening of schools, restaurants, and the organization of local elections has led to an explosion in the number of cases throughout the country, and doctors are already choosing who goes, or not, to intensive therapy.

In Ploiesti, for 2-3 weeks, it has reached the situation where doctors choose the patients who have the best chances of survival, and admit them to intensive care to receive the help they need, and this situation generated by the COVID-19 pandemic will includes several areas in Romania soon.

"Practically, we have to choose between them, when a place or two is created in Intensive Care, we have to choose among the six, for example, who would require care, the one who seems most suitable to enter a vacant place .

The population does not follow the directions. We are not doing well in Prahova at all."
