As Russia’s coronavirus cases have risen 10K for the second day, there also seems to be another growing problem: health care professionals in Russia plunging from hospital windows under mysterious circumstances.
Moscow Times: “A paramedic who complained about being forced to work despite contracting coronavirus is in critical condition after he fell from a hospital window in western Russia this weekend, local media reported.”
“This is at least the third incident in which a Russian healthcare professional has plunged from a hospital building under mysterious circumstances in the past two weeks. The two previous doctors have died from their injuries.”
