However, one of the problems is that 90 percent of applying citizens come to medical institutions without registration. Registration of these individuals occupies a certain time, which causes dissatisfaction of citizens who have passed online registration, since the lively queues are opposed to admission to the clinic of citizens who have passed online registration.
You know that there is no special security service in the clinics, most of the working doctors are women, and therefore problems arise with queue regulation. “
The representative of the Ministry of Health appealed to citizens with a request to comply with the social distance and order in medical institutions, as problems are created in the work of doctors.
