According to the volunteers, one of the pensioners detained today on the march was taken by ambulance to the emergency hospital from the Oktyabrsky district police department.

Natalia Kochanova, Chairman of the Council of the Republic, said today: “Modern service and good conditions for patients and doctors are very important, because people, their well-being and health have always been and remain a priority area of ​​state policy.”

Natalia Kochanova said on June 19 (about doctors' low salaries): “When you went to the medical university, you knew about the salaries.”
