Doctor in Iran talks about the situation of coronavirus in the country. Translation by Jean Steeler: "Taking into account that there is no treatment for a Coronavirus infection, the only way is prevention". "Unfortunately, it is now too late to prevent the outbreak."
"As you know, there is no adequate quarantine ward for patients in the hospital."
"In the past few days, we have had deaths from the Coronavirus."
"Conveniently, (hospital) managers told us to attribute the cause of death to other illnesses, such as a heart attack."
"Based on the patients' chest X-rays and the fact that, as a doctor, I do most shifts here at Newshahr hospital ..."
"It is clear that these patients died of infection with Coronavirus and they were the majority known to us and not strangers."
"In an emergency bed, there should be 2 nurses".
"Unfortunately, there is only one nurse for every 3 or 4 beds."
"The hospital's emergency should have 3 or at least 2 general practitioners and a specialist".
"Particularly, as this emergency is very high risk, with a large number of patients,"
"They (the administrators) sent the specialist to another hospital."
"I don't understand why they do this, but it has been happening for a few years."
"Health professionals do not have protective equipment".
"Pay attention!"
"These few employees need to be healthy in order to take care of (sick) people".
