Two weeks ago, the Transnistrian authorities were announcing that all the necessary measures against COVID-19 are taken and that no cases of coronavirus were confirmed on the territory of the region. Today, a woman died because of the virus, her test results being confirmed at Chisinau.\u00a0The patient had been hospitalised in the section of pulmonary of a Tiraspol hospital together with a patient who was suspected of being infected with novel coronavirus.<\/span><\/p>\n

The diagnosis was made postmortem, Newsmaker informed<\/a>\u00a0citing a local TV station.\u00a0According to doctors, the woman developed bilateral pneumonia and had diabetes and heart disease.<\/p>\n

All in all, there are\u00a018 confirmed cases of infection with coronavirus in the region.<\/p>\n

The day before the woman died, the head of the medical institution, as well the head of the pulmonary section were fired. They were accused of “negligence and irresponsibility”, <\/em>as one person from the section was found infected with coronavirus and, as a result, 50 persons (including the deceased person) had to be transferred to another medical institution from Transnistria where assistance to coronavirus patients was provided.<\/p>\n

All medical test samples from Transnistria are taken to the authorised medical labs from Chisinau, as there are no institutions approved to process the COVID-19 tests in the separatist region.<\/p>\n

At the same time, because of\u00a0 not enough medical staff, 600 young specialists who are still students were allowed to carry out internships in the Transnistrian hospitals, while retired workers were advised to work remotely or to take paid leave.<\/p>\n

The drugs that are not found in Transnistria are to be bought from a pharmacy network in the area, after the citizens order them 2-3 days in advance.<\/p>\n

Transnistrian authorities requested acquisition of tests and thermometers from the Russian Government.<\/p>\n

Doctors who are engaged in treating patients with COVID-19 and all employees of a regional power plant were isolated in the rooms of two sanatoriums. All of them are not allowed to see their relatives and all the necessary supplies are supposed to be delivered by the employees of the so-called Ministry of Internal Affairs who are in charge with managing the isolation buildings.<\/p>\n

Starting from March 27, retired citizens and those with chronic diseases began to be put on a special list by\u00a0authorities. The main objective is to visit these citizens at the place of their residence while insisting to comply with the self-isolation regime.<\/p>\n
