COMPARISON Hospitals are filling up in the east, the west is fine: An important difference! – Topky.sk

While there is one patient in the hospital in Dunajská Streda, three in Komárno, a total of 25 in the Bratislava region and none in Malacky, for example, at the opposite end of the country the numbers are significantly higher. Michalovce reports 20 patients, Košice 58, Prešov 37 and Snina 8. Analysts pointed out that Čadca, which is a small town similar to the mentioned Snina, has 14 patients and their number is growing rapidly.

Paradoxically, the differences in the numbers infected throughout the regions are not so great. “They are doubled in the incidence of PCR 7 days per 100 thousand: Bratislava 75, Trnava 100, Žilina 167, Košice 137, Prešov 127,” analysts said.

The answer to the question why hospitals are relatively empty in the west, while in the east they are starting to fill, gives an insight into the vaccination rate in individual districts of Slovakia.

They pointed out that in Čadca there are more than 50 percent of unvaccinated people over the age of 50, and in Kysucké Nové Mesto, Stará Ľubovňa or Michalovce the same applies. “If you have twice as many non-swimmers in your boat as a friend in a side boat and you go to the rapids, then you would need a lifeguard partner. But you are already on the water and no one will help you. later on Gemeri) there are twice as many ambulances and doctors and beds on the infectious, so it’s bad. Rather, there are fewer of them than in Bratislava and Trnava. “ they added.

“In Bratislava and Dunajská Streda, only 25 percent are unvaccinated (over the age of 50). Similarly, Pezinok and Senec are in the Bratislava region. This is half of what is in the north and east. Or: In the east and north there is 2x more unvaccinated than in Bratislava, “ added for comparison.

They also added that about 10 percent of patients die. “It’s not much, in the last 7 days about 26, but there won’t be from Malaciek and Pezinok. We would watch the East and Čadca / Martin / Ružomberok,” pointed out.

According to the Ministry of Health today, 496 patients are currently hospitalized in hospitals, while 396 people have a confirmed disease. Among hospitalized, 83.02 percent of people are not vaccinated at all or only partially vaccinated. There are 54 patients at JIS, 45 people need the support of artificial lung ventilation.
