Is there a medical collapse now? [New Coronavirus]
Hello!
The number of people infected with the new coronavirus (COVID-19) infection has calmed down a little,
And as It was posted on my Blog a little while ago,
【Where can the emergency declaration be lifted? [COVID-19]】
except for some areas,
the emergence of the emergency declaration has become apparent.
The current situation of infectious disease designated medical institutions in Tokyo was an article on NHK,
so I would like to briefly summarize it while supplementing clusters, hospital infections, etc.
First of all
“How many domestic cluster / nosocomial infections are occurring?"
but,
The website of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has not been updated since March 31 ...
However, the news on May 11 revealed the following.
About domestic clusters / nosocomial infections
①About 250 cases as of May 10
② 85 cases at medical institutions
③ 57 at welfare facilities
④ 23 restaurants
(*Yahoo!)
Actually, the number of infected people was not disclosed,
but is it calculated that there are more than 5 outbreaks nationwide a day?
It will be a little while ago, but as of April 21st
Infection of people involved in medical institutions in Tokyo
① At least 454 people
② ↑ is 14% of the total number of infected people in Tokyo
③ The most common infections are as follows
▼ 201 people at Yongju General Hospital in Taito Ward
▼ Nakano Ekoda Hospital in Nakano Ward has 95 people
▼ 40 people at Sumida Ward Metropolitan Sumito Hospital
(*NHK NEWS WEB)
In this "Coronavirus infection world",
medical personnel are really grateful for working side by side with their lives ...
Also as of April 20,
Nosocomial infections nationwide
① Occurred at 54 facilities in 19 prefectures nationwide
② Total number of infected persons is 783
(including medical personnel and patients)
③ Most of the following areas
▼ Tokyo 8 facilities 375 people in total
▼ Hokkaido 7 facilities 95 people
▼ Hyogo 5 facilities 55 people
▼ Fukuoka 3 facilities 55 people
(*Mainichi)
Nosocomial infection seems to be about 7% of the total.
(10,608 positive people nationwide as of April 20)
And what I'm most worried about now is
“May is midway through, but is there a medical collapse now?"
Designated medical institution for infectious diseases:
Musashino Red Cross Hospital (Musashino City, Tokyo)
① Start accepting new coronavirus-infected patients from late January.
② With the spread of infection,
the number of hospital beds has been increased to 45 beds,
which is double the initial number of beds.
③ It was always full in April when it reached its peak。
④ Since then, the number of new infections has declined
and it has gradually declined due to
the medical treatment policy of home and accommodation facilities
⑤ Now, 13 patients with moderate illness
are admitted to a specialized ward,
one-third of the peak time.
(*NHK NEWS WEB)
It is necessary to pay attention to whether or not the patients
who are still being transported are infected with the new coronavirus (COVID-19),
and to deal with patients,
and because the new coronavirus (COVID-19) is an "infectious disease",
the sheets and pillows are processed.
There seems to be problems such as the burden on the medical personnel who are present and mental care,
but for the time being it seems that there is no medical collapse.
I hope that the new coronavirus (COVID-19) infectious disease that is finally subsiding will be settled really quickly.
I think from the bottom of my heart.
