Eesti Paevaleht journalists have even managed to film the process, reports rus.delfi.ee.
Wednesday at 12 pm 38 min. the Audi A6 with diplomatic numbers stopped at the Rytų Viruma Central Hospital. Russian Consul General Yuri Gribkov got out of the car. He took a bag with the words “Tax Free” in the trunk, which contained bottles, and took it to the hospital.
He was then followed by journalists from Eesti Paevaleht.
Last summer, Mr. Gribkov spent several days in the Intensive Care Unit of this hospital in the Department of Pulmonology, where patients with lung and respiratory diseases are treated. This time, he also went directly to Veronica Ilyin, chief physician in the Department of Pulmonology.
J. Gribkov certainly went in the right direction, as if he already knew the way well, and on the third floor, V. Ilyina was already waiting for him. Together, they made their way to the treatment room and, five minutes later, they left her without a bag of bottles, and Gribkov would later say that it contained keepsakes for the nurses who cared for him last year.
They then went to Ilyina’s office in the Pulmonology Department. After 10 minutes, Mr. Gribkov left the office and thanked the doctors with all his heart.
Their hospital stay lasted 15 minutes, exactly the amount that coronavirus-vaccinated patients were asked to stay in the hospital, in case of side effects.
Mr. Ilyina categorically denied injecting Mr. Gribkov with COVID-19. “No, this is a patient of mine who was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit with us in an extremely serious condition. I did not give him a vaccine, “he told reporters and quickly withdrew.
The same question was asked of Mr. Gribkov when he left the hospital and turned to the car:
– Hi there! Have you received a coronavirus vaccine?
– Yes.
– Was this the second dose of the vaccine?
– Yes.
– “Pfizer”?
– Yes.
– How is that possible? After all, now only medical personnel are vaccinated …
Mr. Gribkov claimed to have very diseased lungs and a treating physician reportedly recommended that he be vaccinated as he would not have survived the infection. He said he was offered the first dose of the vaccine earlier this month. He received his first injection on January 5 and the second on January 27.
This means that the Russian Consul General was one of the first to be vaccinated against the coronavirus in Estonia; Just a few days ago, the first injection of the vaccine was given to Doctors Jelena Rozinko at the same East Viruma Central Hospital. To date, only medical staff and residents of nursing homes are vaccinated in Estonia.
“I think it was a gesture of humanity on the part of the hospital,” Gribkov explained. The consul general also added that the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs had sent a note to all missions in the country with a proposal to vaccinate at the state’s expense.
In fact, on January 14, the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed all diplomats working in Estonia that the state had decided to vaccinate them and their families against COVID-19, but not under exceptional conditions, but under a official vaccination program, ie only after all risk groups, and when Estonia has enough vaccines.
A gesture of humanity or a flagrant violation?
If J. Gribkov calls it a “gesture of humanity”, then the hospital management has a different view. The chairman of the board, Tarmo Bakler, learned of the incident from journalists and launched an internal investigation.
Mr. Bakler added that there is no exception to allow such vaccines to be carried out without a tail. “In the 1930s, these cases cannot take place without supporting explanations and cannot be left unexamined,” he said.
During a telephone conversation with a journalist on Wednesday night, Dr. Ilyina claimed that Gribkov had undergone biological treatment at the hospital. Ilyina asked: if Gribkov had been vaccinated, where are the documents and entry in his vaccination passport? The consul general himself told reporters earlier that he did not have a passport for vaccines, but that he planned to obtain one before returning to Russia.
“Aren’t patient statements always appropriate?” Asked the doctor rhetorically, noting that he was already retired.
But then Ilyina posed another question: what would you do if you had three doses of the unused vaccine with you at night and there were no people who wanted to get vaccinated?
“In this case, the Department of Health told us to find a patient, the first to respond, and get vaccinated. I won’t tell you anything else. It’s just that we don’t have any official documents,” said the doctor.
The Central East Viruma Hospital promised to present the first findings of the internal investigation within a couple of days.
