Migrants loot Leros hospital taking from scissors to x-ray machines
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The immigrants, who are accommodated in the Reception and Identification Center of the island, assaulted the local hospitals and "looted" from wheelchairs, washing machines and refrigerators to cardiographers, ultrasound scanners and surgical scissors! This is not the first time immigrants have reported incidents of violence, but this is truly unprecedented.
It is noteworthy that a total of 43 wheelchairs, which were stolen from the hospital, were located in the hotspot. According to the administration of the State General Hospital-Leros Health Center, the immigrants "expropriated" all the materials that were not used and had concentrated in a specific warehouse for disposal.
According to the board's decision, "tables, air conditioners, metal furniture, miscellaneous machinery, kitchens, refrigerators, washing machines" were stolen, with officials pointing out that "there is a risk from stolen sharp objects". This fear stems from the fact that the long list of stolen items includes surgical scissors, gauze scissors, syringes, shears, various screwdrivers, and chainsaws.
Among the hundreds of items lost, there are 12 washing machines, 41 air conditioners, 36 beds, 46 office and work seats, 13 water heaters ranging from 10 to 80 liters, 23 computers, 24 printers, 25 monitors, 175 fire extinguishers, 20 TVs, 69 telephone sets and 19 ceiling fans. In terms of medical equipment, 46 blood pressure monitors, x-rays, defibrillators, cardiographers, otoscopes, fetal pulse detectors and even a stretcher were stolen.
