126 deaths per day due to coronavirus in Ukraine, of which nine are those who died in the Kharkiv region. Slobozhanshchina again leads in the number of new patients with Covid-19, as of the morning, according to the Ministry of Health, 556 people fell ill. Based on the dynamics of the disease, the Ministry of Health emphasizes the need to increase the number of tests for coronavirus. Therefore, according to the Minister of Health of Ukraine Maxim Stepanov, the capacity of domestic laboratories that diagnose Covid is now being increased. In addition, Stepanov noted that now it is not necessary to do a PCR test for hospitalization, clinical symptoms are enough. But even with them, there is almost nowhere to place patients in the Kharkiv region, hospitals are overcrowded, patients are taken from the city to the districts, says Viktor Zabashta, director of the Center for Emergency Medical Aid and Disaster Medicine. Today, 33 special ambulance teams are working in the region to hospitalize Covid patients, only very serious patients are taken to medical facilities, and all hospitals report to ambulances three times a day about the availability of beds.. Meanwhile, in pharmacies they say: there is no such excitement as in the spring - the shelves are bursting with masks, gloves and antiseptics.

And although the prices for protective equipment have fallen two to three times, the townspeople generally go to buy a mask, and even then not very often, writes ATN. Kharkiv residents say that there is no order in transport, especially in the subway, where, although they promised to reduce the intervals in the morning and evening, they publish photos of 9-minute train delays on social networks. According to the laboratory, since the beginning of the pandemic in the Kharkiv region, almost 34 thousand people have become ill with coronavirus, of which 6441 patients have already recovered, 511 patients were not saved by doctors.
