The president of the Order of Doctors said, this Wednesday, that “it is better to do things by excess than by default” with regard to the measures to be taken to combat the new coronavirus.
“The scenario we have at the moment is a light one. We have six sick people, apparently they are all stabilized, they are relatively young people and I think that until now, things will go well with these people. Now, it is essential that we are prepared for a scenario that will eventually be more serious “, considered Miguel Guimarães, on the sidelines of a working meeting with Internal Medicine doctors at Centro Hospitalar Tondela-Viseu.
“I prefer that people make mistakes because they are exaggerating the measures to try to ensure that there is not in fact a bigger epidemic than leaving things uncovered. .
