“We really all drew attention to the information that appears from there,” Peskov quotes RIA Novosti.

He emphasized that these reports are an occasion for a serious reaction from the regional authorities and the Ministry of Health.

“Therefore, they are certainly addressing this issue,” Peskov added.

Earlier, local media reported that all surgeons of the Central City Hospital No. 1 of Nizhny Tagil wrote a letter of resignation.

The reason for the dismissal, according to some reports, was a high load and inappropriate wages.

The agency, referring to the press service of the Ministry of Health of the Sverdlovsk Region, wrote that the department sent a commission to the hospital.
