According to him, 36 residents of Mariupol died last week in the smallest emergency medical hospital in Mariupol. The average age of the deceased is 60 years. An average of 170 people receive treatment in this facility.
“That is, at least 20% of all patients, or one in five, die in a week in the hospital. In comparison with pre-war times, when the mortality rate in hospitals did not exceed 5%, and the total figure (of mortality – ed.) in the city was equal to the data of only one occupied hospital. It can be seen that if the number of people decreases by 4-5 times, the mortality rate from natural causes has increased by 5 times and maintains the growth trend,” Andryushchenko wrote.”
Adviser to the mayor of Mariupol urges residents of Mariupol to be evacuated while there is a corridor. This is the only chance to survive the occupation.
