“They cause more damage than they prevent” – Wel.nl

Current corona measures cause more damage than they prevent. This is the opinion of more than 13,000 people from the medical world, including 600 doctors. They signed a fire letter, in which they also indicate that the measures lack scientific substantiation.

“The measures were good at first, let that be clear. You have to do something at that time, and quickly. At some point you have to see if it is still wise, ” Roland Laurens, heart and lung surgeon at Isala Hospital in Zwolle, tells the AD.

The doctors fear psychological and economic damage. Care is also becoming increasingly difficult. “It actually says a lot that doctors are now speaking out about it. Doctors are generally reluctant to get out of the queue. They are not so quick to seek publicity, ” says Laurens. “It is now widely heard by many doctors that there is much more to say about the current measures. The rules are conceived behind closed doors and little substantiated. There is much to say about the one and a half meter rule. There is a lot of discussion about the difference between inside and outside. Or about the importance of ventilation. ”

At the end of July, the fire letter will be presented to RIVM and the House of Representatives. “We want to be able to have an open debate as soon as possible,” says Dick Bijl, former GP and co-initiator of the burn letter. “It is not that we are against the measures, but they must be scientifically substantiated.”
