The regime’s Health Ministry announced the mullahs’ engineered Covid-19 numbers from the past 24 hours on Tuesday as 250 deaths (highest in 57 days) and 27,444 new cases (highest since the start of the pandemic).

Head of the emergency branch in Tehran’s Sina Hospital said on Tuesday that hospitals across the province are packed, and the situation is both concerning and tiresome. “Each day we have dozens of calls seeking empty beds to hospitalize a patient.

In Tehran there is a long line, and it does not appear to be any better in nearby cities and towns,” this official added, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.
“We have a new record of the number of people hospitalized in one day and the total number of people hospitalized in Hormozgan province,” said the spokesperson of Hormozgan Medical Sciences University on Tuesday. 888 coronavirus patients are hospitalized, of which 117 are in ICUs. 11,400 patients are quarantined in their homes, meaning the virus continues to spread,” this official added, according to the Tasnim news agency, an outlet linked to the regime’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) Quds Force.
“During the past 24 hours the daily death rate has quadrupled. The number of patients hospitalized across [Ardabil] province stands at 334, of which 67 are in ICUs,” said the dean of Ardabil Medical Sciences University on Tuesday, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.
