The General Hospital of Fuerteventura has activated the first phase of their contingency plan against Covid-19, prepared by the Health Services Management team, to meet the healthcare demands given the increase in hospitalizations in recent weeks.
The Ministry of Health says in a statement that all the hospitals in the Canary Islands drew up their contingency plans before last summer, with the aim of being prepared for spikes in infections and admissions due to the pandemic. In this regard, the Hospital of Fuerteventura hasn’t had to resort to these plans until now, having had a very stable evolution of Covid-19 cases.
