about author In private conversations, Russian surgeons admit that the supply of medicines is sharply decreasing, and this is already affecting surgical operations and the industry as a whole.
According to the Russian Armed Forces' GUR, there is an active discussion about the Russian Health Ministry's order which obliges all regions of the occupying country to create an emergency stock of medicines for four months. According to the military, the appearance of such an order can be attributed to a number of reasons:
- the impact of the sanctions on the economy. As a consequence, the pharmaceutical industry is simply unable to produce enough of the necessary medicines. As the military itself points out, there is currently no production of modern medicines in Russia at all. Import packaging lines have been set up;
- there is a real threat of a complete cessation of supply of medicines from abroad; due to the increased intensity of hostilities, sanitary losses of the occupants are correspondingly increasing;
The SMM also noted that planned operations are postponed indefinitely, medicines are becoming more expensive, and assistance will only be provided to patients in need of urgent surgical intervention.
