Head of Shahr-e-Kord’s Medical Board emphasized that healthcare staff are fed up and cannot tolerate the overwhelming pressure from the constant score of COVID-19 patients. Dr. Roghani explained the trickling vaccination which is in Iran has no effect, since the virus keeps mutating and vaccines will be ineffective. He rebuked the government for “so many mistakes” made in the past 18+ months in managing the crisis. Dr. Roghani mentioned “not locking down the epicenters in the beginning, no mask mandates, lying and hiding the true numbers, religious gatherings,…” as some of those “many mistakes!” He added, if the current path continues in Chaharmahal-Bakhtiari province, the healthcare system will collapse! He also called reopening schools in this situation “not logical!”
Despite the ongoing massacre in Iran in the past 18+ months, slow and chaotic vaccination and “so many mistakes”, the new Health Minister nicknamed his predecessor “live martyr” because he has “sacrificed his honor for the Islamic Republic!” Dr. Eynollahi made sure to clarify what he means by saying, “we are all soldiers of the Supreme Leader,” another proof that Khamenei and his entire system are responsible for more than 262,000 COVID-19 deaths since the epidemic began, based on Civil Registration Organization data. Professor Holakoui from Tehran University believes the official stats must be multiplied by 7 to reach some reality, which is more than 762,900 victims. The least of “Supreme Leader’s” crimes during the pandemic include: banning US and UK made vaccines in January, encouraging religious gatherings in Ramadan and Muharram, preventing nationwide lockdowns,…
While Islamic Republic officials claim shipments of ineffective vaccines “will be arriving soon,” even people who have been given appointments are turned away without their jab. This is in Mashhad, the second biggest city in Iran, where the cameraman confirms: “Yesterday was the same, there is no vaccine. They just announced people who had registered before, must register again so when vaccines arrive, they can receive it!” Isfahan, Kermanshah, Tehran, Khuzestan,… have closed down many of their centers due to the shortage.
Ministry of Health claims since February 9, total of 28,442,990 shots have been administered in Iran while only 9,293,143 (11.06% of population) have received both shots of the ineffective vaccines. According to officials, there have been many breakthrough cases among Sinopharm and COVIran Barekat receivers.
Delta variant continues its destruction path and hospitals continue having problems supplying enough oxygen to COVID-19 patients. Non-COVID-19 patients await for ICUs to become vacant. Elective surgeries are still suspended in most hospitals across Iran. Ardabil reports “dangerous situation” in the province and Lorestan recorded about 1,300 hospitalized COVID patients. In addition to previous rumors about Lambda cases in Tehran and official denial of it, Hormozgan officials are being “prepared” to quarantine in case Lambda is identified in the province, which increases the chance of it being in the country. Islamic Republic officials are probably being “good soldiers” and hide the truth from people, as they have done about Alpha and Delta variants.
The Ministry of Health Spokesperson announced her manipulated and underreported data, in which 595 died of COVID-19 in the past 24 hours and 30,279 tested positive for the novel coronavirus. Based on this data, in the past 10 days, every 2.4-minute an Iranian died. And if it is multiplied by 7, the staggering figure of 3 deaths per minute is the result! Graphs illustrate the “many mistakes” which have led to five coronavirus waves in Iran, more than any other country in the world.
