‘I lost it’: Tomsk resident spends three days disguised as doctor in coronavirus hospital ‘red zone’ to care for sick grandmother

A resident of the Russian city of Tomsk spent three days passing himself off as a doctor in order to sneak into a coronavirus hospital's "red zone" and care for his grandmother, after she was hospitalized with pneumonia. The grandson claimed that medical workers weren't treating or feeding the elderly woman, or changing her diapers. After being found out, the man tried to bring his grandmother's case to the attention of local authorities, but no one answered his phone calls. He then decided to fly to Moscow, where he succeeded in getting the Attorney General's Office to launch an inquiry. Original Article: https://meduza.io/en/feature/2021/10/28/i-lost-it
