Tomasz Pajączek, journalist of Onet: Minister of health in new data. We have under 30 thousand. Questions more than the fourth wave. Are you early?
Prof. Krzysztof Simon, member of the radio board at the premiere: The omicron has arrived. It does not surprise me at all. Where are the provisions on covid certificates and mandatory group restricted entries? Do we have to block people without masks for confined spaces? Where is it all? These are the consequences.
The minister appeals to the employer on the procedure of switching to remote work and announcing such a function in public administration. To solve?
And I will say this: vaccinations, vaccinations and vaccinations again. And the requirement of the recipe of the regulations: masks when entering confined spaces, washing hands.

“The virus changes but is still aggressive”
*
Why did you give up advising the prime minister?
We have included the justification in our letter. Our objection is contingent on the constraints of the non-exposure to operating prohibition. Also in the pandemic in Poland, it was implemented in the wild. It cannot be that we are constantly discussing something in the end with the prime minister and the minister of health, and they cannot break through their political environment.
This rabid anti-vaccine group, the main one in the United Right camp, makes it impossible to deal with the epidemic, but also takes on the odium of the perpetrators of this tragedy. Politics began to dominate and the fight against the tragedy of the epidemic with common sense, world-wide knowledge, and the worst of it was the health and unnecessary deaths of thousands of Poles. Those people who are directly responsible for blocking our recommendations can be placed with determinants.
What were the recommendations?
Our recommendations were not innovative, but those used in epidemics of infectious diseases. Since there are no effective drugs yet, comprehensive diagnostics, detection of people for those who are in need, hospitalization and contact quarantine each time, which can probably be shortened and it is necessary to achieve covid in access to the place where people learn.
For this righteous law enforcement law in force, including the mask company and the compulsory mandatory group: clubs, medical media, teachers and all over 60.
The prime minister listened to the recommendations, but became a facility for an anti-vaccine group within those present?
It seems that all of Poland has become a hostage of the “anti-everything” group, this time with various anti-vaccines.
What was a bit of bitterness that you quit right now, on the brink of the fifth wave?
We’ve talked about it before, but since our actions were not present, no further cooperation would make sense. From what we agreed with the Prime Minister, almost nothing during the round and this round, almost nothing for the environment. What would mine be there for? The fact that we have left does not mean that we will not support the government, including ours and our experience in fighting the epidemic. We also declared that, and whether we will be needed, I do not know.
However, I expect someone to finally tackle the anti-Covid, people who send us people to limit death and death, for example: “He can be appointed for himself today with the cut militias, because you will die first.” It’s about me and my family. To the threat of jammed behavior and pro-health behaviors, and therefore according to the substitute model and the world of people of scholars, pro-Polish and patriotic attitudes.
Even the disciplinary spokesman of one of the medical chambers for failing to skillfully award me, wearing masks at a time when thousands of people disregarded it. How do these people fight the epidemic if you don’t want by my hands to disinfect, exercise you have masks, keep your distance, diagnose the location and place and vaccinate which is most important? The virus is changing but still aggressive.
Vaccinations are the most effective protection against covid?
Yes, of course not the only one. I have data for two weeks of November. Portugal, 90 percent vaccinated 15 deaths per 1 million inhabitants. Bulgaria, 23 percent vaccinated and 325 deaths. There is a difference?
It’s hard not to tell her.
So why, why not why not explain “, not only me,” you will hang “(words of Grzegorz Braun – ed.) For determining the method of fighting the epidemic?
Why is information about the effectiveness of vaccination not available in Poland?
Three elements of the elements of democracy and organization will be displayed on the main towers and sets of the states of the center. We have had terrible shortcomings in each of these elements lately. Completely straightforward in the media, the Internet message dominates, often prepared outside Poland, and people who have nothing to do with medicine and those who simply want to shine take the floor about vaccinations.
You are referring to the statement by the curator of education from Małopolska, Barbara Nowak, who called the official graphics covid an experiment.
How can a curator, teacher, teacher tell such nonsense? To participate in children’s education through such? I am waiting longingly for better-educated government officials. If this lady hadn’t given up, she would have resigned. If you do not have medical knowledge, you do not have to speak out and encourage anti-Covidians. After all, some people believe in this stupidity, when they see that the serious one says so.

“My prognosis is bad. We’re not made of rubber.”

What is the situation in the covid ward in which you operate?
Not bad. We currently have patients in the ward. The vaccinations get sick, as long as they are discharged home with treatment, lightly and after three days, more and more often from the second age group, without disease – severely ill patients, and this is the targeted group, which concern deaths.
Of the several dozen deaths that occurred from the beginning of December, there was a second one, the remaining ones were unvaccinated. You can see, however, that the fourth wave is ending and the fifth omicron is slowly approaching. It will be a serious problem.
This is the calm before the storm?
The scale of what awaits us during the week is difficult to assess, because there is a small gap between the delta and the omicron. Some people have even better ones and one will work with each variant. On top of that, we have a part of the population who got vaccinated with the third dose. These people will hardly be affected by any misfortune.
And we have young people who rarely suffer from symptomatic diseases. But it is not true what this man with a mustache from the Confederation, Korwin-Mikke said, that children at school do not get sick. There are no green concepts about it. Children suffer from the fact that they mean something to older people, and there are also deaths among children and adolescents, important among children burdened with other diseases such as cancer, Down’s syndrome, diabetes, although the scale is small.
What is your forecast for the coming weeks?
My forecast is bad. We have not had time to validate that the three dose method is used, which is guaranteed to be safe. If we really have such a system to build up, our system will not stand up. We are not made of rubber. There are too few nurses and paramedics in Poland. Some of these people became sick, some passed or died, and retired from a group by profession. I’m sorry, but who cares about these sick people?
After all, only populist gadgets that we will occupy more wards and more beds. Of course, you can add them to the beginning, only the beginning, just for no one to attend. And because the branches of directives are based on the fact that they were previously, services will not be installed anymore. Yet people have accidents, heart attacks, strokes, and cancer. The medical staff will not be doubled. We cannot be in two places at once, admittedly it does happen to ministers.
Can the enlargement be done, that it is possible for all hospitals to place and repair places in houses?
If there is no place to put them and who to handle, it will be so, although today it is a fortune-telling on coffee grounds.
Poland is ready for the fifth wave?
I’m not kidding.
What can you do now, in a hurry?
It’s too late. Of course, you have to do everything, because we are here to take part in the program. But we got through with covid right away and I will make a selection of the group made by the group that are the simplest, that are not your memories, that can make you, and do what you do to keep going. Medics are to be vaccinated from March 1, and why haven’t they been vaccinated since December 1?
Why did MPs and senators not set an example and did not apply for a transport obligation for the entire Seym and Senate? There is only madness there: ostentatious not wearing masks, shouting slogans about a still personal person. Freedom is then that he is not another human being. How is it that Mr. Braun walks without a mask? Where is the prosecutor? See how the Australians handled this buffoon and uninspired croak, Novak Djokovic. They fired and it’s done. This is how everyone should act, which should also lead to PiS deputies.
How do I print a death wave?
It was necessary to get what the medical council at the premiere, but also others, have been saying for months and follow the example of other countries.
What type of body to solve the medical council?
Perhaps other people will come, perhaps they will be smarter. I listened and spoke the words of Bolesław from PiS, who proclaimed our lips. We don’t invent miracles for mine. There are specific methods of fighting epidemics.
During the nasty commune, you had a smallpox epidemic in Wrocław, I was a little one. The city was closed, everyone was vaccinated, nobody protested and there were only eight deaths. The procedure was as it is today if I could make several tens of thousands of victims.
Is the omicron actually less dangerous than the delta?
Omicron is very contagious and transmits easily. But with time new variants of it, it is not known whether it is more or less. It seems that there must be less in order for him to survive. How he kills, cannot be multiplied, and he dies himself. Therefore, from the point of view of biology, its aggressiveness will decrease.
over 40 percent the society that got vaccinated is now next to date. It affects almost 15 million people in this country.
Are you scared of what may be happening in the coming weeks?
I am disgusted with all of this as a Pole, European and patriot. I am disgusted with the behavior of society, the part that is called the sovereign.
