Already 92 health workers in Chechnya have become infected with coronavirus, the deputy head of the republic's Ministry of Public Health (MPH) stated on May 20. Earlier, the Minister Elkhan Suleimanov himself reported about the virus spread, Instagram users have noted.

As of May 20, the number of people infected with coronavirus in Chechnya reached 1005; 11 people died.

Some doctors have already suffered the infection and are back at work, said Alam Gadaev, a deputy head of the Chechen MPH.

Instagram users have expressed their concern about the absence of the Minister Elkhan Suleimanov.

The user gospodin_andiev has suggested that Suleimanov got simply "tired." "Probably, the man has got tired; he'll have some rest and return."

"Elkhan, how are you? How is your health? We worry about you," wrote the user _alooood.
