On the other hand, Távara made reference to the treatment with Ivermectin that has been 100 percent effective in mild patients and that is being distributed through rapid response teams to patients with covid-19. There are 8 thousand kits of this medicine that prevents patients from aggravating and being hospitalized.
“In the beginning we were applying Hydroxychloroquine, however, given the adherence of the treatment and seeing that it has fewer side effects, we preferred to use Ivermectin. In mild patients it is 100 percent effective and in moderate 95 percent effective. In serious cases it does not give results ” , he expressed.

ERP. The regional director of Health, Víctor Távara Córdova , announced that in the coming days the Piura region will expand its response capacity against the coronavirus with the implementation of 440 new hospital beds; these will add to the 793 beds that the region currently has; He also highlighted the efficacy of Ivermectin in mild patients and the possibility of creating oxygen plants.
“100 beds are being implemented on the esplanade of the Cayetano Heredia hospital in Essalud, another 100 in the Contingency Hospital of the 36 Campeones Stadium in charge of the National Health Investment Program. While the Authority for Reconstruction with Changes will install 240 beds, forty of them in intensive care in La Videnita and another 100 beds in the Sullana Fairground. This, without counting the 150 beds of the Señor Cautivo Popular Hospital , ”said Távara.
The doctor pointed out that the main limitation to optimize care in these new environments that will be installed is health personnel, so the Regional Government has asked the Ministry of Economy for a budget to hire personnel.

Regional Director of Health of Piura highlights use of Ivermectin and expansion of hospital capacity
“In addition to the shortage of protective equipment, another problem is the lack of personnel. In Piura we only have 30% of what we really require to meet the demand of patients. The Premier said that he would send 40 health professionals to Piura, but only 25 arrived, which have already been distributed to the Santa Rosa and Sullana hospitals , "he said.
Regarding the improvements in the region's hospitals, especially with regard to oxygen, the doctor indicated that with the installation of the isotank in the Santa Rosa hospital, this hospital has no longer suffered from shortages. He also reported that the Sullana isotank, already installed, will be operational in the next few hours.
“There were patients who days ago were being treated in the open on the ramp of the Apoyo hospital in Sullana. This was solved by relocating them to the hospitalization area of the hospital, which has 30 beds for moderate cases and another four for intermediate care. At Chulucanas we redistribute the beds and we are treating patients in better conditions, which will be optimized with the placement of the isotank whose works must be completed in the coming days, ” he said.
In the case of Talara, he highlighted the prompt installation of an oxygen tank in the Minsa hospital and the announcement by Petroperú about the implementation of a modular hospital in the EsSalud hospital with 30 beds for moderate cases and 15 in the ICU, while In Paita, six oxygen baths have been sent to meet demand.
“In Piura, 20 thousand m3 of oxygen are being produced and at the regional level 19 thousand m3 are required, that is, we are doing well in production, but the problem is the lack of balloons. The Premier, Vicente Zeballos, last Sunday during his visit to Piura promised to send 150 balls and to date has not sent anything. We need at least 850 cylinders to meet the demand at the regional level, however, with the isotanks we will require less, "he said.
Regarding the creation of an oxygen plant, the also head of the Covid Regional Command, said that this proposal is being evaluated by the General Management and will need to be supported by a technical study. Likewise, the possibility of installing isotanks in the hospitals of Ayabaca or Huancabamba or in any case distributing balloons in these high Andean areas is being evaluated.
On the other hand, Távara made reference to the treatment with Ivermectin that has been 100 percent effective in mild patients and that is being distributed through rapid response teams to patients with covid-19.

In mild patients it is 100 percent effective and in moderate 95 percent effective. In serious cases it does not give results ” , he expressed.
"With the rapid response teams, we have been intervening in various sectors not only with the application of discard tests, but also with counseling, feeding and psychological help to patients who are positive, " he concluded.
The data
The Director of Health stated that the fatality rate of Covid-19 has decreased to 6.5%
