“The 11 beds are occupied, 10 of them with patients with Covid-19.” He also informed us that the situation has been “at the limit for several days, but the hospitalizations were for a short time, not this time.”
“We have come in recent weeks with a very high occupancy. We had the hope of lowering the curve. Today it is complicated for us, even the diversion of people. This shows the difficulties of Region IV,” said García.
The doctor also highlighted: “The province established a network, the most frequent places are the Gualeguaychú Centennial Hospital or, eventually, Paraná, which has effectors with more capacity, but which today are overwhelmed. Now we have established a contingency referral plan. Today a patient went to Concepción del Uruguay “.
García stressed that Gualeguay does not have private effectors and is a city that receives the department’s areas of influence: “We provide support until the system collapsed, we will resort to places where we can. At the same time, pathologies such as stroke, multiple trauma, and heart attacks continue to be treated. “.
