In several districts of Dagestan, hospitals are so crowded that patients are put in the corridors. Many drugs are simply no longer there, as are mechanical ventilation devices. Protective suits for doctors – units.

At the same time, the authorities are literally begging the population to maintain isolation. But at the same time, decisive quarantine control measures are not introduced. In fact, the first such action was the decision from May 3 to close the city of Khasavyurt for entry and exit.

Over the past day in Dagestan recorded 160 new cases. In general, almost two thousand people were infected, 13 of them died.

At the same time, doctors and activists say that these figures are significantly underestimated, and that a huge number of cases are not diagnosed at all due to the very low level of testing.

“I don’t understand why to help those who are aching now. If you are a parasite who wants to do nothing and receive money – this is your choice. Let’s start with the homeless, they also live poorly, each has its own story. Why should I help you? What happened? ”

A huge number of negative comments hit the trainer and a flurry of criticism on the net.
