Social network users worry about opening new hospitals in KBR

In the near future, two new hospitals with 300 beds for coronavirus patients will soon be launched in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (KBR). Instagram users treat the fact as an indication of the worsened epidemiological situation.

The KBR's Ministry of Public Health (MPH) is preparing to open two new hospitals for the treatment of 300 coronavirus patients, the MPH's press service informed on June 11.

The information about deployment of additional beds for coronavirus infected patients has caused a stormy discussion among social network users. Some commentators expressed their concern, treating the MPH's plans as confirmation of the dire epidemiological situation.

"Why are they opening new hospitals; is everything really so bad here? People already have their nerves at the limit," the user ruslan.bekanov was indignant.

"Please explain to me what everyone is preparing for; why are they opening new hospitals everywhere? What is the reason for this? What is our state hiding from us?" the user umm_suleiman_ has asked.
