117 people in quarantine are also expected to vote in Ruse. There are 5 polling stations open in the COVID compartments. BNT reporter Daniela Dimitrova joined voters in the COVID sector of the Oncology Center.

Due to fear of infection, instead of five PEC members each, three people enter the COVID wards in Ruse. They are equipped with suits. Most have had COVID or been vaccinated.

Because they will work 12 hours today between the virus, they demanded an additional remuneration of BGN 50, but the CEC denied it. Currently, 26 patients are housed in the COVID room of the oncology center. Most are in serious condition, BNT reports.

Here there is no resuscitation, there is not enough oxygen. Some of the concentrators were purchased from patients who have overcome COVID-19. However, 10 people have lost the battle against the disease in the last 4 months.

The commotion and noise around the vote in the COVID compartment is felt, but not heard, because only the breath itself is under the protective mask. In one bed there is an oxygen man, in the other is Milen Gadzhev, 41, who caught it from his wife.

“Shortness of breath, fever, chills,” says Milen Gadzhev.

Although his body does not obey, he will go to the next room to vote. Petar Petrakiev has already fought the virus and will be discharged in a few days. His mood is better, which is why he is among the first to vote in the COVID section.

As chair of the sectional electoral commission in the COVID sector, Nedyalka Nedelcheva wants fairer pay.

“We don’t even know how long we are here. Because we are humanists here, patients, even in an infection ward, have to use their voice,” said Nedyalka Nedelcheva, president of the PEC in the COVID ward.

Doctors try to put fear aside because in critical situations that are common here, it doesn’t help them.

“You can’t get used to informing your relatives when someone is dying that someone is getting worse, it is difficult,” added pulmonologist Dr. Nikolai Evgeniev.

The biggest problem in the COVID compartment is a lack of oxygen.

“We have always had a problem with oxygen. We have had cases where patients do not respond to even 16 liters per minute of oxygen,” added Dr. Kamen Kozhuharov, Director of KOC-Ruse.

The director of the oncology center dreams of an oxygen generator for coronavirus patients and is going to vote for better medical care before assuming late duty in the COVID sector because there is a shortage of medical personnel.
