While public anger continues to escalate over the mullahs’ plundering and criminal coronavirus policies, regime officials are placing the blame on their predecessors in fear of possible future protests.
“In our country the health sector has been neglected. In the 14 trips that we have had during this short period to different provinces we visited various health centers. Nearly all health centers have been off our network,” said Health Minister Bahram Einollahi on Tuesday, according to the state-run Daneshju news agency.
“If the previous officials were more active in the health apparatus maybe today, we would not be witnessing this number of coronavirus deaths,” said Alireza Marandi, head physician of regime Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, and head of the Medical Sciences School, on Tuesday, according to the state-run Daneshju news agency.
“Despite the vaccination effort, other measures are needed to be in our agenda because otherwise more peaks will be in our future. The novel coronavirus continues to spread across the country,” said a senior regime health official on Tuesday, according to the regime's official IRNA news agency.
“The 44 percent increase in the number of new cases in comparison to the first day of the week is an alarm bell. Each minute we have ten people contracting the virus. In the coming 14 days we will probably witness the beginning of the sixth peak,” according to a Tuesday report wired by the Tasnim news agency, an outlet linked to the regime’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) Quds Force.
“The number of nurses who contracted Covid-19 increased with the spread of the fifth coronavirus peak in [North Khorasan] province. In January nurses received a coronavirus payment. However, afterwards there were no further instructions from the Ministry. Our colleagues working in the coronavirus branches expect to be paid for their hard work,” said the director of the Nursing Department in the North Khorasan Medical Sciences University on Tuesday, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.
“More than 2000 hospitals beds in Fars province are currently in use by coronavirus patients. 186 of these patients are in ICU branches and receiving special care,” according to a statement released on Tuesday by the Shiraz Medical Sciences University.
