Two days ago, a citizen of Ibb province died of swine flu, joining a long list of victims whose lives have been killed by the virus, which is rampant, in areas controlled by the Houthi militia, the Iranian arm of Yemen, despite its extreme secrecy.
In Sana'a, hospital beds are filled with patients without accurate diagnosis of the disease, turning them into an open trial ground for inexperienced and incompetent doctors as most qualified doctors migrate.
At Al-Thawra General Hospital in The City of Sana'a, specifically in "outpatient clinics", patients line up long in front of the "nurse" to take blood samples for examination without any preventive precautions.
Abdul Rahim Tahir tells "News Yammen": "I came to do tests and x-rays for my father because he suffered from kidney stones, and a blood sample was taken, and due to the poorness and worn out of the devices, the examination did not show us any disease, as well as the X-rays that we waited for the second day, and when we returned to the doctor only a antibiotic dispensation, But my father's condition worsened, and when we treated him to a private hospital, tests showed that he was infected with swine virus, and now he is in intensive care, due to the deterioration of his condition due to the misdiagnosis of the revolution, as well as their lack of consideration to isolate the patients of cough and respiratory diseases from the patients others causing many infections within the hospital itself.""
"The World Health Organization (WHO) is taking care of all the needs, and although the Houthi ministry of health benefits through the looting of medicines as well as cash assistance from organizations, we are surprised why they did not explicitly declare the many injuries," said Nurse M.S. at Al-Thawra Hospital in Sana'a. Swine flu.
She confirmed that the number of deaths exceeded 130 cases in Al-Thawra Hospital and some private hospitals that were able to reach accurate statistics on the number of deaths of this flu.
She added: "" We are facing an actual and undeclared disaster, and the number has doubled with the end of the cold, which has doubled the number of respiratory diseases in adults and children."
Mahmoud Nasser, who accompanies his sick mother in a private hospital in Sana'a, expressed his indignation at what he called the gruesome trade of disease and patients in private hospitals, and said: The patient's inintensiveding in intensive care as a result of swine flu became more expensive than heart patients and clots, one night costs between 180,000 to SR 300,000.
He added: "My mother was helped by Omran after our neighbor died of "cold", which made me doubt that she died as a result of swine flu, and when my mother started to get sick I brought her to the Science and Technology Hospital and it became clear that she was carrying this virus and our neighbor and his wife followed us.
According to unofficial medical reports, the number of casualties and deaths is higher than announced by the spokesman of the Ministry of Health in the Houthi government, particularly in the provinces of Rima, Al-Mahweit, Dhamar and Ibb.
Due to the state of obfuscation and extreme secrecy imposed by the Houthi militia, in addition to the diagnostic errors in government hospitals, the statistics remain inaccurate for the victims of swine flu, so that diseases and epidemics continue to kill Yemenis without any movement from a group that has brought destruction, destruction, ignorance and disease since Its control of power and its bloodshed in Yemen.
