Iran, August 27, 2021—Over 389,000 people have died of the novel coronavirus in 547 cities checkered across all of Iran’s 31 provinces, according to reports tallied by the Iranian opposition People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) as of Friday afternoon local time, August 27. The official death toll declared by the regime stands at 105,287 around a fourth of the actual figure.
The coronavirus death toll in various provinces include: 91,346 in Tehran, 27,985 in Razavi Khorasan, 25,680 in Isfahan, 23,956 in Khuzestan, 15,120 in Mazandaran, 14,068 in East Azerbaijan, 13,792 in Fars, 13,690 in Lorestan, 13,648 in West Azerbaijan, 13285 in Gilan, 11,615 in Sistan & Baluchistan, 11,343 in Alborz, 10,945 in Qom, 10,078 in Kerman, 9310 in Golestan, 6848 in Kermanshah, 6740 in Hormozgan, 6728 in Yazd, 6147 in Kurdistan, 5745 in Semnan, 4825 in Ardabil, 4469 in Bushehr, 3848 in Ilam, and 3070 in Chaharmahal & Bakhtiari. This is in addition to reports obtained from other provinces.
The regime’s Health Ministry announced the mullahs’ engineered Covid-19 numbers from the past 24 hours on Friday as 571 deaths and 36,279 new cases. Furthermore, 7817 patients are in ICUs (new pandemic record) and 4799 of the new cases have been hospitalized.

“The people’s main problem is the lack of medicine because 52 percent of the medicine market is controlled by 300 state pharmacies and the remaining 48 percent is controlled by 13,000 private pharmacies. There is no balance here. Nearly 60 percent of the pharmacies are on the brink of bankruptcy. Currently most of the shortages that people here about are related to Covid-19 medication,” said the deputy chair of the Iran Pharmaceuticals Association on Friday, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.
“Other than the country’s southeastern regions, all other parts are in poor conditions and the death tolls are very high in many provinces. One of the issues we are suffering from is the fact that coronavirus is still not one of the country’s main priorities. The Health Ministry alone cannot manage the coronavirus epidemic. If the health minister is changed 100 times over, and yet the structure remains the same, the same trend will continue. Reports from Turkey and other neighboring countries indicate a rise in lambda cases. Therefore, the threat is right next to us, and the coming days are extremely concerning,” said the head of Iran’s Epidemiology Committee on Friday, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.

“A significant number of patients need ICUs and are in line. We are facing a major shortage due to the high number of extremely ill patients,” said the head of Tehran’s Khomeini Hospital Complex on Friday, according to the Mehr news agency, an outlet linked to the regime's Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS).
“During the past 24 hours 21 patients have lost their lives to coronavirus. We currently have 966 patients hospitalized, of which 236 are in dire conditions,” state TV reported on Friday citing the Qom Medical Sciences University.
“The numbers of new cases, deaths and those hospitalized have been unprecedented in the past four weeks in comparison to the entire coronavirus pandemic period. The number of victims increased by seven-fold and the number of new cases and those hospitalized tripled. The number of patients in dire conditions is also rising. Hospital beds are running short in [Ilam] province and no one can confront this virus,” according to a Friday reported wired by the regime’s official IRNA news agency.

“Each day there 450 to 500 tests conducted in the city of Dezful, of which 55 to 60 percent are positive. The number of new cases, people being hospitalized, and the death count are all rising extremely fast. Conditions are catastrophic. If this trend of new cases continues at this rate and vaccination continues at the current slow rate, conditions will resume deterioration with each passing day,” said the deputy dean of Dezful Medical Sciences University on Friday, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.
“The status is not good at all. Considering the fact that the upcoming two weeks remains unpredictable, conditions will most definitely remain critical. If general vaccination is not realized we will be facing another wave,” said the head of Mashhad Medical Apparatus on Friday, according to the semi-official ILNA news agency.
“The number of patients hospitalized in [Kermanshah] province breaks record each day. 1411 patients are hospitalized, of which 209 are in ICUs,” according to a Friday statement released by the Kermanshah Medical Sciences University.
