This was stated by the head of the Ministry of Health Viktor Lyashko during an hour of questions to the government in the Verkhovna Rada on Friday, November 19.
“We have allowed preventive medical examinations, since the COVID-19 epidemic has a significant impact on other diseases. In particular, we are talking about infectious diseases, cancer, tuberculosis and other diseases that, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Therefore, the health care system is preparing for the fact that during these two years, when we are in quarantine restrictions, the number of other diseases will significantly increase in 3-5 years, which will manifest themselves not at the initial, but at other stages of the development of the disease, it will be much more difficult to cure and much more expensive for the country’s economy. Therefore, we have resumed medical examinations, “Lyashko answered when asked about medical examinations of teachers.
According to him, according to the law, medical examinations of certain contingents of workers are carried out at the expense of employers, so teachers should not pay for its passage.
At the same time, the heads of health care institutions conducting such medical examinations must clearly plan their work and determine separate days and hours for conducting medical examinations.
