translated from Spanish: The Intensive Therapy Society warned: “Lethality is increasing”

The Argentine Intensive Therapy Society (SATI) warned of the increase in lethality and considered the importance of returning to a stricter isolation phase, to prevent and prevent COVID-19 cases from continuing to grow.” The current working structure is very complex, with 24-hour guards. The chances of accessing a plant site or headquarters are slim, and it’s another element that plays against it,” said the company’s vice president, Guillermo Chiappero, via a letter to Radio Mitre.

For his part, the doctor and member of the SATI, Arnaldo Dubin, insisted on Thursday that “the country must return to a much stricter phase of isolation” since “the mathematical projections of coronavirus in the country are terrifying”.

Warning from the Argentine Society of Intensive Therapy

“Argentina has a low lethality compared to other countries that have highly developed health systems, such as the United Kingdom. That is, we have much less decesses in relation to the number of infected. However, lethality is increasing and this has to do with what is happening in intensive care and the shortage of specialized doctors. We were few before the pandemic and the disease exacerbated this problem,” the professional said in radio statements.” We are exhausted, we are prone to mistakes, and the disease has decimated our ranks. Our commitment is inescapable, but we are human and have limits,” he added.
“We see with concern what has happened over the last few days. We saw people crowded in bars and coffee without saving distances and without protective elements. Bizarre issues, such as the celebration at Cerro Chapelco, or demonstrations at the Obelisk burning beards. This is going to be accompanied by an increase in cases. And I don’t know if we’re going to be able to deal with it in intensive care,” he concluded. It is worth noting the various pathologies and diseases that also make up the area of Intensive Therapy in addition to the coronavirus and the importance of the health system also sustaining and assisting them.
