Health confirms that all ICU patients are unvaccinated
The Vice Minister of Health Insurance and Management of the Unified Health System, Alejandra Hidalgo, said this Wednesday that the people who entered an Intensive Care Unit these days, affected by Covid-19, did not receive either of the two doses of none of the vaccines available for the immunization of the population.
“There is a low percentage of vaccinated people that enters the ICU, and this has already been demonstrated: all the patients who have entered the intensive care area are people who did not receive any of the doses of any vaccine,” explained Hidalgo in contact with ATB.
She added that if these people would have received the vaccines, the chances of being treated in an ICU would have been reduced.
“If these people had received the doses, the admissions to intensive care would have decreased,” explained the Vice Minister.
She also asked not to follow criteria not scientifically proven or statements such as that the anti-covid doses turn people into “werewolves.”
“These mentions that the woman or the man becomes infertile are not scientifically proven assertions; much less a criterion that they have issued, that a person would become a werewolf,” she declared.
So far in the third wave of Covid-19 in the country, no patient who entered the intensive care unit of the Hospital de Clínicas received the vaccine, according to reports from medical staff. According to specialists, this data is important because it shows the importance of inoculation.
