Exclusive report: Hospital nurses silenced about coronavirus

Exclusive report: Hospital nurses silenced about coronavirus infections

A shocking report from inside Iran revealed that hospital nurses are not allowed to talk about patients with coronavirus and have been instructed to register the disease as “acute respiratory distress syndrome” instead of coronavirus.

According to an eyewitness from Milad Hospital in Tehran, the prevalence of coronavirus is much higher than before, but hospital nurses are not allowed to mention that the patient has coronavirus. Two nurses at Milad Hospital were discharged from the hospital after telling some patients and their accompanies that they had the disease.

In a disturbing and inhumane measure, hospital authorities have taken away hazmat suits from the nurses and ordered them to care for patients with regular uniforms to avoid scaring the patients’ accompany. This is while 35 nurses at Milad Hospital have contracted coronavirus.

Exclusive report: Hospital nurses silenced about coronavirus

According to this eyewitness, currently 99% of the clients in Milad Hospital are coronavirus patients and the situation is getting worse day by day. However, the hospital officials plan to fire 70 nurses on the pretext of downsizing the hospital.

However, Rouhani, the Iranian regime’s president announced April 18, 2020 as the end of quarantine and said that people should go to work.

Ebrahim Shakiba, the spokesperson of the headquarters against coronavirus in Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, announced on April 21, 2020 that since the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak, 107 employees of various medical and health departments in the province had been infected with COVID-19. Shakiba said 23 of them are doctors, 40 are nurses and 44 are health staff and members.

In another news it has been mentioned that the highest number of people of the medical staff with coronavirus are emergency personnel. (The state-run Salamat News website – April 22, 2020)

Emergency personnel are also Iran’s angels who are the first to serve patients with coronavirus but are less talked about. Like hospital nurses, their work is very difficult, and many of them have developed psychological problems. One of them said our tasks have reached 100 patients a day. Work shifts are very tight, and they sometimes stay in the emergency room for up to two weeks.

On Thursday, April 23, 2020, the Iranian Resistance announced that the death toll from the coronavirus crisis in 296 cities in Iran has risen to more than 34,200 people.
