Concern in Germany about the implementation of Covid-19 restrictions

Germany is preparing for the entry into force, next week, of new restrictions to face the fourth wave of the pandemic, which hits the country hard with record levels of incidence and an increase in hospital pressure, and there are concerns about its implementation, reports Efe.

Among the measures is that only those vaccinated, recovered or with a recent negative Covid-19 test can use

public transport

and it is feared that some conflicts will arise.

Furthermore, the new legal framework requires the federal states to impose some measures according to certain parameters.

The most important is the weekly incidence of hospitalization and if it is above 3, the requirement is that only vaccinated people or those who have overcome the disease have

access to bars and restaurants

(already applied in Berlin and Bavaria).

If the hospitalization index is above 6, in addition to being vaccinated or recovered, people who want to enter the premises must present a recent negative test.

However, hospital pressure worries due to the loss of capacity of the ucis due to personnel problems.

Currently 14% of the beds available in the ucis are occupied with 3,565 patients.

cholera

,

polio

or

flu

, global mortality would have been "tremendous."

Polio, he added, was a "real disaster" that was saved by Salk's vaccine, something that "people forget."

For this reason, this doctor

"does not understand" that there are those who do not protect themselves against covid-19

when the efficacy of vaccines has been "scientifically proven".

seems a lie is that there are intelligent people

Reino Unido investiga "sesgo sistemático" en equipos de tecnología médica

El gobierno británico anunció este domingo que abrió una investigación independiente para examinar si existe un "sesgo sistemático" en el desarrollo de equipo de tecnología médica, luego de que el covid-19 puso el tema sobre el tapete.

El secretario de Salud, Sajid Javid, hijo de migrantes paquistaníes, dijo que trabajará con su par estadounidense, Xavier Becerra, así como con otros países para analizar "estas valiosas tecnologías"

Javid citó investigaciones que indican que los oxímetros, que monitorean los niveles de oxígeno y han sido usados en la pandemia, son menos precisos con personas de piel oscura, recoge Afp de un artículo publicado el domingo en el diario Sunday Times.

"One of the principles of our (healthcare system)

is equality and the possibility that bias

, even if unintentional, could lead to a poor health outcome

is totally unacceptable

," he wrote.

He added that "

we urgently need to know about the bias in these devices

and what impact it has on the front line."

He said that's why "I commissioned an independent investigation into any systematic biases that exist in current gadgets, and if there is, how to address it."

He noted that the assessment would include all medical devices and other common biases, in

addition to racial, such as gender

.
