Poland doing well with pandemic: expert

Poland is among the strong European leaders in terms of effectiveness in reducing the rate of virus spread, says Mariusz Gromada, director of the Customer Intelligence Department at Bank Millennium, mathematician and statistician.

In his commentary, he adds that Poland has carried out by far the most tests compared to countries with a similar number of confirmed infections. The number of tests per patient indicates that Poland has on average tested an additional 24 people with one positive result, which also places it at the forefront of European countries.

“This does not mean that Poland performs enough tests. It means that many countries have problems with it. Increasing the level of tests is absolutely necessary for us to leave the houses. Mass insulation can be replaced with targeted insulation, which is necessary to restart the economy,”  the analyst suggests.

In his opinion, during the last weekend in Poland, a significant increase in the number of newly identified cases of COVID-19 was noted. All analyses carried out indicated that it is now and for the next approximately ten days that the daily growths will be increasing.
