DENTAL CLINICS WERE BLOCKED WHEN CORONA CASES EXPLODED

THE EARLIEST APPOINTMENT IS IN 10 DAYS
.
In Ankara, where bed capacity is full due to the increase in cases of Corona virus, almost all dentists have been sent to the field for contact patients, this time dental polyclinics have become inoperable. Patients are given 10-15 days after the earliest appointment, Turkey Medicals said, “the health system has returned to a patchy package. The ministry has completely missed the end of the rope,” was stated.

After the increase in cases of corona virus in Ankara continued and there were no empty beds in hospitals, the Ministry of Health changed the algorithm in tracking contact patients, the dentists it drove to the field, authorized patients to start medication at home.

THE TURKISH MINISTRY HAD LOST CONTROL OF TRANSPARENCY
.
When we said that the number of cases across Turkey is not explained transparently, there are no empty beds in Ankara hospitals, the minister preferred to make a statement by playing on the numbers instead of facing the truth. As the number of cases increases, filiation teams struggling in the field are having trouble catching up with the contact patient. The Turkish ministry of health, which lost control, found the solution to this by leaving two doctors in polyclinics and driving all dentists to the field.

.
THEY LEAVE THE CITIZEN HELPLESS
.
This time, dental polyclinics have become unable to serve. In these outpatient clinics, the practice of caring for patients without an appointment was terminated. And when you call 182, they give the earliest appointment 10-15 days later, depending on the density in the county. They want to avoid the clutter in front of the clinics, leaving the citizen helpless. The health care system, which is already about to collapse, has been patched up because of irrational practices in the COVID-19 process. And he can’t hold stitches anymore. The Turkey ministry has completely missed the end of the rope.
