There is a medical collapse in temporarily occupied Mariupol: there are not enough doctors and medicines in the city, and the mortality rate among residents is growing.



This is reported by the Mariupol city council.

There is a catastrophic shortage of doctors in the city's hospitals. So getting an appointment is a real ordeal. Kilometre-long queues stretch into the streets," the report says.

Months come long before the opening of the hospital to see a doctor. Some take the queue at 5 am. Offers to buy a place in the queue have started appearing in local chat rooms.

The City Council notes that the situation is the same all over the city. It is also difficult to get to the pension fund and other social institutions.

The fact that in Ukrainian Mariupol it was possible to solve any problems quickly thanks to comfortable CNAPs and electronic queues in hospitals is now only nostalgia," the city council added.

It is noted that in Mariupol problems with medicines - the biggest deficit of insulin. Increased mortality in the city.

As previously reported, in temporarily occupied Mariupol invaders do not pay salaries to communal workers and do not pay scholarships to students. Also failed admission campaign in Melitopol. Local residents refuse to enrol in higher education institutions run by Russians. Because of this, the occupants force members of the admissions committee to look for students for statistics.
