Poland becomes an infamous leader in terms of Covid-19
20:58
Only between December 1 and 19, in the European Union (plus Norway, Liechtenstein, and Iceland), 38,000 people died on Covid-19. Of this, as many as 8,360 deaths from coronavirus were recorded in Poland alone, or 22 percent of all deaths in 30 European countries. Poland is the absolute leader of December in this sad classification (and in fourth place in terms of deaths per million inhabitants).
Unfortunately, the reality is much worse than official statistics say – those reported daily by each country to the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC). They do not include, for example, the deaths of those who suffered from a condition other than Covid-19 and for whom there was no place in overcrowded hospitals or the ambulance did not arrive. And we know that the Polish health care system was in a deplorable state before the pandemic. At the same time, Poland is among the least vaccinated countries in the European Union, and in terms of immunization with a boosting dose, we are the last.
According to Team Europe Polska, 78.4 percent of adults in the EU are fully vaccinated. In 9 countries, the vaccination rate is still below 60 percent. In Poland, only 54.4 percent of people are vaccinated.
All these bad statistics, as if ignored in the mainstream today, will affect our society and economy for years to come.
