Thus, the Corona War proved the efficiency of the health care system in Turkey

Corona virus (Covid 19) came out of the Chinese city of Ohan, and soon spread to many regions of the world, and it was very late in its arrival in Turkey; even at one point when "Covid 19" was expanding and drawing a red map in all the countries surrounding Turkey At the time, Turkey looked like a small white island in the middle of that red map.

The Turkish opposition did not refrain from turning this issue into a serious concern, and they said: This virus has spread in most places, but it has not reached us! Why? They made it a serious problem. While the main reason for the delay of the arrival of the "Covid 19" virus in Turkey is that the Turkish Ministry of Health began - early on - to take the necessary effective measures, without fuss.

At the beginning of noticing the spread of the disease outside Turkey, an immediate decision was taken to suspend all air and land flights with China and Iran, and for travelers coming from outside Turkey, an automatic monitoring system was implemented to ensure their health safety using thermal cameras installed in airports.

On this occasion, when one of the opposition MPs criticized the entry of the returning Minister of Health from outside the country waving his hands without any examination or control, the Minister of Health responded in a humorous manner, referring to the safety measures taken at the airport by saying: “If this deputy wishes, he can know his temperature from Thermal cameras installed as he passes through the entrance of transit travelers, and to share them with public opinion. "

However, on March 11, the first infection was diagnosed and the first positive result for the analysis of "Covid 19" appeared, and since that time Turkey, like the rest of the globe, has become acquainted with the "Covid 19" virus, even if it arrives late.

From the first day, although the course of the disease was slow, what happened in Turkey happened in the rest of the world, so we started to see the number of injuries multiply not according to an arithmetic sequence, but according to an engineering sequence. The number of injuries, which was (5) on the third day, became in the following days 18, 45, 98, and 191, and on the evening of March 21, the number was 947 injuries.

Indeed, despite this accelerating progression of the "Covid 19" virus, the effective and exceptional measures taken by the Ministry of Health since the emergence of this virus are now more clearly visible.

Let’s say whoever wants it, but this incident (Kovid 19) - and increased demand for the health sector - showed one of Turkey's biggest achievements in 18 years of working to strengthen the health care system, and this system has been tested and proven highly capable and efficient. These experiences showed that the health care system in Turkey is one of the most powerful in the world.

The health system that was applied in Turkey 18 years ago can be forgotten. Today, the whole world is aware of our progress in the health care system, and even the opposition itself was appreciated and admired.

The health care system in Turkey is considered one of the most successful areas in the ruling Justice and Development Party's march. The health system in Turkey 18 years ago was a real catastrophe. Despite the high financial cost that was allocated to the health system in Turkey, it was very far from the service of citizens, because the method of management was very poor, and it was a dispersed and chaotic sector, as well as corruption issues.

With the arrival of the Justice and Development Party to power, the entire health system was grouped under one roof, corruption was strictly eliminated, and significant investments were made from surplus funds due to the elimination of corruption, and within a short time the health system services became available to all citizens, and they could receive services with quality and speed Itself without any distinction between rich and poor.

Today, in order to benefit from the services of the health care system in his country, the Turkish citizen only needs to show his personal identity, and Turkish health care services have become the best quality and cheapest in the world. Moreover, health care has become one of the export items in Turkey over time.

Also, medical tourism has now become an important area of ​​the tourism sector in Turkey, to the extent that many people in Europe and the United States of America, or Turkish citizens who live abroad, are heading to Turkey because they find the health service that they receive in it cheaper and better quality of health services In their countries.

In recent years, the ruling Justice and Development Party headed in the field of health to the establishment of huge medical cities, and was a serious step towards reducing the number of patients and beds for each doctor, but the opposition held that this high absorptive capacity is unnecessary, but rather that these projects were wasteful and wasteful of money.

But the facts that emerged with the Corona virus showed that Turkey had a very distant view in this field, as the whole world is living in a total deficit in the face of the “Corvid 19” virus; where it first appeared in China and then Iran, then it began to spread quickly and seem outside Out of control.

In Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, and Germany - and in other European countries - measures and measures have been taken to counter the virus, but if we look at Turkey - even though tourism is a significant part of its economy - we find that the performance and measures that have been taken - so far - are very successful. Thanks to these measures, the entry of the virus into Turkey was late, but it seems that the growth of its spread in Turkey will not take a different path.

At the present time, Turkey aims to fight this contagious virus, which doubles the number of people infected with it as a geometrical sequence, as has happened everywhere it was first seen, and the Turkish Ministry of Health is making systematic efforts aimed at preventing the number of patients from reaching beyond its curative capabilities; Adopting measures that reduce the spread of the virus.

Unlike other European leaders, President Erdogan's rhetoric on this subject gives the masses high morale. The philosophy used in health policies in Turkey reaffirms the saying: Make people live for the state to live; therefore the ultimate goal of the state is to keep people alive, and then provide a decent life.
