Military medics to help treat coronavirus patients in Moscow Region
Military medics will provide assistance in treating coronavirus patients in the Moscow Region at the regional governor’s request, Russian Defense Minister Army General Sergei Shoigu said at the ministry’s conference call on Friday.
"I know that today a request has come from the governor of the Moscow Region for our medical teams: resuscitation, nursing and doctor-nurse teams. A decision on providing assistance has been made," the defense minister said.
The Army must today support those who are in a difficult situation, including defense enterprises, Shoigu stressed.
"We are working there [at defense enterprises] because the defense procurement plan must undoubtedly be fulfilled. Those measures, which we have mapped out for the operation and for the support of the operation of defense industry enterprises, must be implemented fully and unconditionally," the defense minister said.
Russia’s defense minister earlier said that the Armed Forces had set up a reserve for assisting Russian regions and formed 65 resuscitation, doctor and nurse teams.
