Data revealed: How many corona patients are defined but hospitalized for other problems?
Yolan Cohen | Savings Plan | Posted 16/01/22 19:19
We checked all the major hospitals - how many of the patients classified as blue in Corona came to the hospital for another reason? The figure, which was considered critical in dealing with the virus, is now becoming clear.
The main measure in the health system and outside it, in the government, is the number of people hospitalized in the corona wards: the number of corona patients in hospitals - both severe and moderate and mild. But tonight (Sunday) we published for the first time in the "Savings Plan" the full data: some of them came as a result of Corona and some were hospitalized due to other medical problems other than Corona, and were simultaneously discovered to be blue in the virus. Ichilov Hospital has 86 patients, of whom 67 were hospitalized due to another medical problem and were found to be blue.
Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem has 100 patients, and an estimated 50 were hospitalized due to another medical problem and were found to be blue. Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital has 76 patients, of whom 35 were hospitalized for another reason.
At Rambam Hospital in Haifa, 48 patients are hospitalized and an estimated half of them - 24 - were hospitalized due to another medical issue and were found to be blue. At Sheba Tel Hashomer Hospital there are 120 hospitalized, of whom 40 were hospitalized due to another medical problem and were diagnosed with blue.
Back to the center of the country. Sheba Tel Hashomer Hospital currently has 120 patients. Of these, 40 were hospitalized due to another medical problem and were found to be blue.
76 of Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Center are hospitalized - 35 of them were also hospitalized due to another medical problem and turned out to be blue.
Although the corona exacerbates the condition of some of the patients, a look at the data revealed tonight for the first time shows that a significant proportion of patients were not necessarily hospitalized due to the corona.
While the health care system is making a tremendous effort to maintain public health and save lives, vociferous factors are emerging, including physicians, who are producing irresponsible discourse aimed at eroding public trust.
Also in the fight against the omicron strain, the Ministry of Health practices professionalism and discretion in order to maintain public health, alongside maintaining the economy, education, culture and as much as possible a routine of life alongside the corona.
Prof. Matot's proposal not to verify a large proportion of those infected and thus to allow a faster and more widespread spread of the disease, is not acceptable to the Ministry of Health. The policy proposed by Prof. Matot could lead to severe harm to at-risk groups, an increase in the number of critically ill patients and mortality.
Unfortunately, Prof. Matot's conduct, and the language in which she chose to express her criticism, raises concerns that lust for publicity sometimes outweighs responsibility.
In addition, it should be noted that the use of the official page of a government hospital in favor of expressing a personal position - is illegal and prohibited.
The health care system in Israel is working tirelessly against the wave of serious illness, with discretion and responsibility, in an effort to maintain public health and economic activity. Those who do not want to help - do not interfere.
So 49.6% of тАШcovidтАЩ patients in these hospitals were admitted for non-covid reasons. ItтАЩs very refreshing to see a news report where just the data are reported without an attempt to spin it.
Yaya, do you know what % of Israeli hospitals and/or hospitalized Israeli тАШCovidтАЩ patients this represents?
Thank you! It sounds like Prof. Matot is another brave voice. Could you supply some background information on her and what she is proposing that is putting her in the line of fire from your MOH?
