‘We’re Expendable’: Russian Doctors Face Hostility and Mistrust Davis ## Reporter 05/21/20 (Thu) 09:57:04 ee9105 No.258968

There are no daily public displays of gratitude for Russian doctors and nurses during the coronavirus crisis like there are in the West. Instead of applause, they face mistrust, low pay and even open hostility.

Residents near the National Medical Research Center for Endocrinology, a Moscow hospital now treating virus patients, complained when they saw medical workers walking out of the building in full protective gear, fearing the workers would spread the contagion.

“Maybe once the disease knocks on the door of every family, then the attitude to medics will change,” said Dr. Alexander Gadzyra, a surgeon who works exhausting shifts.

The outbreak has put enormous pressure on Russia’s medical community. While state media hails some of them as heroes, doctors and nurses interviewed by The Associated Press say they are fighting both the virus and a system that fails to support them.

The US is socialist too anon, don't deny it. We are bailing out everything today with free gibs and endless debts. The whole world is turning into a commie clown show. Stop denying reality.
