Patients were shifted from Latakia hospital to Tartus and from Damascus hospitals to Rif Dimashq and Homs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, quarantined Covid-19 cases in private hospitals are almost few because the cost of treatment is too high. Wages of the ICUs is four million Syrian pounds per day (about $1,150), and decreases to one million and a half (about $430) in other wards, according to Damascus residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similarly, treatment wages in hospitals operated by the Syria Arab Red Crescent (SARC) is more than one million and a half Syrian pounds, a nurse in al-Shami hospital told North Press.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reporting by Ritta Ali<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Death and infections toll of #coronavirus is increasing in Syrian government-held areas as people are obliged to gather in front of bakeries, gas stations and in public transportation. #Syria <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":67071,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-syria"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
