News media in Russia reports that more doctors and nurses in Russia are in need of the corona virus. According to their report, casualties among medical workers actually occur almost every day.

Just last week, more than 200 doctors in Moscow and St. Petersburg sent the virus infected, and some of them used social media to discuss their bad luck.

It is not clear how many Russian doctors and nurses were infected. The Ministry of Health did not ask permission from the Associated Press to comment on the reports.

However, reports from around 12 regions, over the past two weeks, imply 450 medical workers have been confirmed as having been with COVID-19, with 11 doctors and five nurses dying.

Said Semyon Galperin, director of the Defense League Medical Doctors (DDL) advocacy organization.

"Hospital officials did not report their medical workers who were infected for fear of asking to complete the facility," he said.

The number of cases of corona virus in Russia increased rapidly reaching more than 87,000 cases with almost 800 deaths on Tuesday (28/4). Many Western countries doubt the accuracy of the data. Necessary major cities of Russia have imposed locking since March 30, and the policy will end next Thursday.
