"We are all in one boiler"

In the Arctic of the new flash of Covid-19 among the shift workers

“The previous shift began to hurt: 8 people were brought to the village from the deposit of Pashshor, with temperature. They were detained here until June 24 on quarantine and without tests were launched to work, in a common dining room, in a common shift. At the end of the month, they again showed sharp symptoms. By that time, people were already being taken out of here. ”

Oleg (the name of the hero has been changed, the full data is at the disposal of the editorial office) came to the watch at the Kharyaginsky oil field, to the Nenets Autonomous District (NAO) from Usinsk (Komi Republic). He works at LUKOIL-Kom LLC-this is Lukoil's daughter.

Watchmen from all over the country live in the village of Kharyaginsky, taking into account the employees of contracting organizations there are about a thousand people there at a time. On the official website of LUKOIL-Comers, you can see numerous releases about the purchase for healthcare institutions “from personal funds of VAGIT Alekperov”-and nothing about the situation in Kharyag.

The first information appeared in the popular political public "New Republic" in Komi. It was reported that the masters and the workshop of the workshop are working on the remote, and the real number of cases of the watchmen is unknown.

This time, Oleg began the shift at Oleg two weeks earlier: the watchmen spent 14 days in the Usinsky Observatory on the quarantine, during which time, two cords on coronavirus were handed over with a weekly interval. The result is negative. Thus, a completely “clean” watch has stopped to work.

The problem is that the previous, sick, by that time had not left the working village.

“Officially on June 12, the village was closed for quarantine,” says Oleg. -And from the 12th, they began to import a new shift, and brought up to the 24th inclusive. Everyone intersected in the streets, except that the dining room was closed. There are only 6-7 residential buildings in the village. They were divided into green (clean), yellow (suspicious) and red zones.

While they were equipped, we were taken to “overexposure” to other deposits, where we were engaged in utility work - painting, cleaning. And when they returned to Kharyaginsky, each board was met by the deputy chief of the workshop and said: "You will see who without the mask - ***." This was the only recommendation from the leadership. ”

From the collective complaint of the watchmen to the trade union committee "LUKOIL-Kom": “All employees are in contact. The workers continued to send to other workshops, upon the return there were sick SARS, but continued to contact the healthy ones. As a result, on 09.07.2020-78 positive tests on the COVID-19. ”

The letter is at the disposal of the editorial office, it was signed by more than 60 watchmen.

People who came to work in a couple of weeks needed an emergency assistance to doctors.

According to our interlocutors, one of the “pure” shift had to be exported by connected to Ivl.

In total, the heavy course of infection (with connection to the devices) is still for four shifters.

People with means of protection, at first glance, are provided with: sanitizers, gloves, masks. But there is a nuance. These are simple medical disposable masks that need to be changed every 2 hours. So, according to Oleg, they give out such masks allegedly at the rate - one for 3 days.

“We are all in the same boiler, the tests have so far from the LUKOIL-Comers, contractors are only going to test,” the watchman continues. - Most are sick asymptomatic, including. We were settled in the old residential complex, where we lived covid. A doctor comes, measures us temperature and oxygen. Give antimlarial drugs. But sick leave do not open. And since there were no sick leave - there was no production injury, there was no mass infection. ”

By the way, about anti -malarial. Watchmen sent us a photo of the package of the drug he prescribed. This is a hydroxykhlorokhin, which in the first weeks of Pandemia seemed to the Panacea doctors, in Komi he was actively used and seemed to give good results.

Only the other day, the Association of Clinical Research Organizations asked the Russian Ministry of Health to exclude the drug from the methodological recommendations for the treatment of coronavirus due to complete inefficiency. A few days ago, the WHO announced a few days ago about the cessation of the research of this drug for the treatment of patients.

People complain about living conditions in the corps: the roof flows, there are no mosquito nets on the windows, and in the Nenets district this is a disaster in the summer. The air is full of insects, while there is heat. You won’t open the window - you will suffocate, you will open - the next morning you swell from the bites of the midge.

In the rooms from two to four people, common bathrooms, people freely move around the corps, can go out into the street.

According to the watchmen, the leadership in conversations with them finds the mistake and his guilt in the spread of infection. But the fact that people will be paid some compensation, workers are very doubted. In a collective complaint, they ask to at least conduct total express testing in Kharyaginsky within five days.
