HEART CENTER BAD KROZINGEN
“A lighthouse clinic is being scrapped”
To the article “Economic situation is dramatically exacerbated by Covid-l9 treatments” in the BZ issue of April 2:
Now you have finally managed to hit the University Heart Center in Bad Krozingen financially against the wall. This is then communicated to the employees transparently “in a phase” in which coronavirus “protects” the employees “at the front” from all political sides. The clinic management of the then heart center had agreed in 2012 in an unprecedented misjudgment of the merger, as desired by politics. At that time there was talk of negotiations at eye level. Long-standing employees who had critically revised themselves were discredited as doomsday criminals. It came as it came as a result. The course was set with the friendly “takeover” of the then managing director and the personnel manager at the University Hospital Freiburg. From then on there was no longer any question of eye level. In the meantime is in the management
no one with roots in Bad Krozingen. The DRG was tightened politically, tax payments were suddenly necessary between the “merged” clinics in state ownership. Finally, a sales tax obligation was mandatory, which led the clinic to the edge of its financial possibilities. Finally, once again at the political request, the clinic was shut down because of Corona in order to create the resources for the pandemic. The missing earnings are not initially offset. Finally, there was always an argument with the personnel representatives about future representation on site from Freiburg. 1600 employees in Bad Krozingen are processed in this way.
So much for the value appreciation of nursing and doctors and other “systemically important”. A “lighthouse clinic” (quotation from Prime Minister ttinger) that has outclassed the university clinic in cardiology for decades is being scrapped. Scandals.

CORONA CRISIS
“Transparency helps people understand”
Letter to the editor for “Little information about Corona cases” in the BZ issue of April 8:
We citizens have to digest some tough restrictions during this time. I think “we” mostly do it very well. However, I still consider the watchful eye on restricted civil rights to be important and necessary. For me, it is incomprehensible the zero information policy of the district of Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald regarding Covid 19 case numbers. Our neighboring district of Black Forest-Baar has been publishing daily case numbers for all locations for some time. This is transparent and at the same time helps mayors and citizens to better assess the situation.
The Landratsamt justifies not publishing these figures with data protection guidelines. The state data protection authority sees no violation in the publication! In addition, only limited conclusions can be drawn about individual persons through the publication, since the data situation is shown with a time lag to the real situation!
I think that we citizens have a right to open communication through the district office. Many hard measures would be better understood and acceptance would then be greater. How the “mature citizen” would go in harmony with the authorities: Publish the data!Michael Schfer, Feldberg
