3rd Russian doctor plunges from coronavirus hospital window

A third Russian doctor has plunged from a hospital window after complaining about medics facing intolerable pressures.

Alexander Shulepov, 37, is fighting for his life with head injuries.

He claimed he was ordered to work despite testing positive for COVID-19.

In a video, he and colleagues also warned about PPE shortages in Voronezh city.

Later – lying in a coronavirus hospital bed – Shulepov made a second video to retract the claims amid suspicions he was pressured to do so.

On Saturday, while being treated at Novousmanskaya district hospital, the experienced ambulance doctor plunged from a second floor window sustaining skull fractures.

He is now in a grave condition.
