The authorities of St. Petersburg were required to disclose data on COVID-19

Member of the St. Petersburg Parliament Mikhail Amosov appealed to the vice-governor of the city Oleg Ergashev with a demand to "immediately resume" the publication of information on the number of patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of covid, fell ill with it and died from it. Until June 3, 2021, the interdepartmental city council for combating covid-19 published a certificate with the relevant data , however, in the last two weeks, the council has published only information on the number of people vaccinated in St. Petersburg.

The press service of the city HEALTH committee also does not disclose the number of hospitalizations with CORONAVIRUS. According to the interlocutor of RBC Petersburg in the city health care system, their number is "growing rapidly." Against the backdrop of a worsening epidemiological situation, the Mariinsky Hospital resumed receiving patients with COVID-19.

Deputy Amosov demands to disclose data on morbidity. “I believe that citizens have the right to receive up-to-date information about the development of the epidemic and about ongoing anti-epidemic measures. I am sure that the publication of statistical data must be restored, ”the parliamentarian wrote.

Deputy Oksana Dmitrieva sent another request to Smolny. She, in turn, asked the leadership of the health committee to provide data on those vaccinated and subsequently hospitalized with COVID-19, "to stop the wild rumors that are circulating in the city." “It is important to have such statistics. You need to know exactly what is the proportion of sick people among those who have been vaccinated and those who have been ill. There are a lot of rumors among the people and the influence of “covid dissidents,” she wrote in her TELEGRAM. “We need to prove with numbers in hand the need for vaccination and how it affects the course of the disease,” the deputy added.
