Vitebsk "doctor - love of truth" believes that poor living conditions in urban hospitals humiliate people. Especially considering the fact that the "protracted" and tightened decades repairs are funded from the state budget, but by and large - through taxation of the same patients. He therefore proposes to collect similar fotodokazatelstva and make them public.

Only when the public will know about the facts of the disastrous state of the local medicine, this can be openly fight, convinced Igor Postnov. In his blog he writes:

"Recently I visited the place "buildings of the century": Fever Hospital, Oncology Center, the new building narcological dispensary, neurological and body therapy department emergency hospital. Constructions stopped and destroyed by corrosion, moisture. Already equipment delivered just stolen... Many people ask me why climb into these wilds, to fight windmills? I'll try to answer... For example, my eyes welling with tears, when I observe that for chaos going on around. Perhaps it tears of impotence, because the one I can not do anything. not can prevent the suffering of children and adults, can not stop the wild plundering budget...

However, in our country today, perhaps the only way to fight - publicity. They fear more than anything else, even more than the devil fears holy water. One thing when talking about something like kitchens, transport queues. Above that they just laugh. Quite another - a large-scale response."

Realizing that not everyone is ready to fellow public expression of his own anger, Igor Postnov offers in pictures sent to his e-mail. He has repeatedly spoken out about the disastrous state of the Vitebsk medicine, violation of the right to a decent life for patients who have to be treated is not in the best conditions. Vitebsk "doctor - love of truth", says a lot about health and "long-term construction", which for decades the money is spent, and the queues at clinics, and low salaries of physicians...

Last year, after the appearance on the Internet a series of presentations on the subject, Igor Postnov straight from work was taken to the psychiatric ward of a regional psychiatric hospital. This pre repeatedly threatened him at different levels. Vitebsk "physician whistleblowers" forcibly sent for compulsory psychiatric treatment, and the decision of the district court of Vitebsk he still failed to appeal. His testimony that were not present in court neither he nor a lawyer whose services administration mental hospital was not allowed to appeal, were not accepted nor Vitebsk regional nor the Supreme Court.

Stressing that the courts ignored his right to an independent and impartial trial, he appealed to the Human Rights Committee of the United Nations. Appeal Igor Postnova already accepted for consideration.

With regard to medical facilities in Vitebsk, this problem is very acute for the townspeople. For example, despite the lack of funds, providers of Vitebsk proposed a target to raise funds for the development of cancer services in the region. And this proposal angered fellow they know that the money allocated for the development of the industry periodically, but how and why they are distributed is not always enough - unknown to anyone.

Citizens themselves trying to fight for the implementation of social standards: neighborhood residents of Bilevo-1 and Bilevo-2 gathering signatures for construction of polyclinic complex. Construction was planned a few years ago, in 2012 has already been made project documentation, but this year plans of the investment program this item disappeared, as if it had never existed.
