a Paradoxical situation developed with personal protective equipment for health workers. The health Ministry on Tuesday called the regions where stocks are depleted, and protective clothing remained for only a week. The Ministry, however, argues that the stores were overstocked Sesame, and costumes and there is more than a million.

In warehouses a lot, and in medical institutions is empty. How can this be? Experts give three possible explanations.

First: the regional authorities do not keep track of your medical facilities do not know enough there is PPE or not.

Second, regional authorities are aware of the problems, but they have little money, so they save in the hope that doctors on the ground somehow will provide.

Third, regional authorities keep abreast of the PPE and the money they have, but they prefer to buy the “left” SIZ – not from the official producers of industry and trade, and from local artisans or speculators, who supply Chinese products because they are cheaper and sometimes better.

In most cases, running is not one of those reasons, and all three together. In General, experts say, the PPE market is now very muddy and this, too, has its explanation.

medical facilities not always can adequately assess the need for Sisak. There are no clear instructions, no method of counting from the Ministry of health, so someone is eating more than I need, and someone underestimates needs.

the Budgets allocated for purchase of PPE, often do not take into account today’s needs, and additional funds are either insufficient or very long walk.

the Level of PPE should be the same for institutions that accept patients with the coronavirus, and for institutions that do not accept them, because asymptomatic carriage of the virus risks for physicians is now the same everywhere. But purchasing departments like to “clean” the medical institutions are not informed about the new procurement procedures, I don’t know about the best providers and is certified PPE buy anything. The protection of these “horrible” is not allowed. Doctors complain, and to buy the normal PPE for them not on what the money is spent.

Finally, the unpredictable rising prices for materials for PPE, which are mostly purchased abroad. This often leads to what medical facilities are on prepaid contracts get less PPE than ordered.

in Addition to all of these reasons, which are explained objective unreadiness for a pandemic health structures and organisational failures play a role still and the shadow, the commercial interests of the managers. Many recovered quickly and try to “acquire” on a bluish – make your small business.

In this regard, the Ministry of industry and trade, as reported by “MK” familiar with the situation source plans will pay��smiling to the state office of public Prosecutor and Rospotrebnadzor with the request to check in the regions, the procurement of individual protection means for medical institutions.

In April, the head of Minpromtorg Denis Manturov has already drawn attention to the lack of activity of some regions in terms of procurement of PPE and failure to provide information about securing them. In particular, he called Amur oblast, the Republic of Altai and Tuva, as examples of entities that don’t order anything from the official manufacturers and do not buy.

According to the trade Ministry is currently in the country is produced 224 thousand protective suits a day. Made a great breakthrough: on April 24, the output was only 57 163 the costume of the day.

the Production of disposable masks for the last week increased from 4 million to 6.5 million per day. About 2 million reusable masks produce small and medium entrepreneurs, but the need for them begins to decline. Citizens have already bought myself a mask and erase them, and the new do not spend.

Skin antiseptics are made in the amount of 400 thousand liters per day goggles – 32.2 thousand per day, the respirator is 500 thousand per day.

In quantitative terms, the Ministry has reached the level where we can say that in Russia now there is enough PPE to meet the needs of all medical institutions. In principle, we don’t need to be export ready safety products. However, the necessary raw materials – fabrics, materials, sizing as well – the country is not yet made. Lot to be purchased abroad.

If sufficient volumes of production of means of individual protection of medical facilities continue to have shortages – it is not a question to producers, but rather to regulators.

They have now to clear away the wild market formed around PPE at the peak of the pandemic. Sift-scale miners, speculators, debug, procurement procedures, to develop a method of calculating the required hospital respirators-costumes-gloves and to help physicians and manufacturers of PPE finally with each other to meet.
