Crimean residents lack beds in hospitals due to reservations for Russians

The cold has begun in Crimea, and Sevastopol hospitals are currently running out of places for patients with seasonal diseases.

This was reported by the Yellow Ribbon resistance movement on Telegram.

Due to the increase in the number of patients with flu and ARVI, civilian patients are more often denied hospitalization. In particular, the occupiers reserve places for wounded Russian invaders and other persons associated with the administration of the Russian Federation.

For the same purpose, for several months in a row, the length of stay of patients (even in the children's department) in the hospital has been reduced. In particular, patients are offered to continue their home treatment.

As a reminder, the invaders are importing medicines to the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson region that are about to expire.

The occupiers supply the remaining batches of Russian medicines to the TOT, which have only 3-4 months left until the end of their shelf life. This problem was already noticed in early September with insulin, and now a similar situation is observed with painkillers. In fact, the occupiers are forcing the local population to use medicines that are about to become unusable.

At the same time, in the temporarily occupied Henichesk, the situation is critical due to the acute shortage of basic medical supplies: healthcare workers are forced to boil syringes and catheters to reuse them.

The Main Directorate of the State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection in Kherson Oblast will conduct inspections of pharmacies in the Kherson community to ensure that they comply with the prices of medicines and medical devices.
