Doctors are not hidden Germany Their deep concern about the repercussions of the energy crisis in Europe and the disruption of electricity and gas supplies. According to the Berlin Hospital Association, the impact of the crisis does not stop at the usual pace of work, but also affects the health of patients.
The Association warns that a large percentage of its hospitals face the possibility of closure during the next period, due to high energy bills on the one hand, and on the other its inability to bear the increase for patients.
This danger is no longer far off, especially as many hospitals say the government support package is insufficient and fail to consider hospitals in particular, despite their dire need for this support, which the government denies.
German Health Minister Karl Lautrabach said the federal government was aware of the problem and was working to fix it. "There is no way we can abandon hospitals under these circumstances and we cannot allow hospitals to close due to high energy costs. This won’t happen"
And most dangerous, as doctors say, is that measures to save energy do not apply to the health sector, which cannot turn off the lights or lower the temperatures out of fear for the health and safety of patients.
