Shulepov and his colleagues also warned of a shortage of PPE in the city of Voronezh, which is located in southwestern Russia.
Later, while lying in a coronavirus hospital bed, Shulepov made a second video to retract the claims amid suspicions that he was pressured to do so.
While receiving treatment at the Novousmanskaya District Hospital on Saturday, the experienced ambulance doctor dived from a second-floor window suffering from skull fractures and is now in serious condition.
Two senior female doctors in Russia also died recently after apparently falling out of hospital windows amid reports that they had challenged their superiors for the lack of PPE for patients.

Shulepov was filmed with fellow paramedic Alexander Kosyakin who, just a day earlier, had been summoned by police on suspicion of spreading false news after complaining about the shortage.
Their hospital bosses claimed the allegations were false, but doctors believed that Shulepov’s infection demonstrated a lack of claim for protective equipment.
In the video, Kosyakin said: “The ambulance doctor Alexander Shulepov is next to me, Covid-19 has just confirmed.
“The chief doctor forces us to work, what do we do in this situation? We are not leaving the shift …
“Alexander and I have been working together for a month.

“This is the situation. Everyone says it’s false (but) these are real facts for you. “
Three days after being hospitalized, Shulepov recorded a video claiming that his condition had improved.
“I have a runny nose, otherwise everything is fine,” he said.
He stated that in the previous video “we were very excited” and that after he was found to be positive for Covid-19, he was fired from his shift.
This has led to fear that he has been forced to record a message from his sick bed cleaning the hospital bosses.
The hospital’s chief physician, Igor Potanin, has declined to comment.
In another case, Dr. Natalya Lebedeva, 48, fell 60 feet to her death from the sixth floor of a Moscow hospital.

Her death came after she and her colleagues were wrongly accused of the spread of the coronavirus at their clinic in Star City, near Moscow, the training center for cosmonauts.
He had also been infected with Covid-19.
Dr. Yelena Nepomnyashchaya, 47, a mother of two, suffered fatal injuries after falling 60 feet from a window in her Krasnoyarsk hospital.
His colleagues said he had complained of an “acute shortage” of personal protective equipment for doctors and nurses.
Russia today recorded its largest one-day increase in new cases since the start of the outbreak with more than 10,000 people testing positive.

The biggest jump is in Moscow, where temporary hospital facilities are opening, although Russia’s official death rate remains relatively low at 1,280.
Russia now has 134,687 cases of coronavirus, according to the latest figures from Johns Hopkins University.
It is one of the countries where the mortality rate increases more rapidly, approximately doubling the number of deaths in the last 10 days.
