The mother of a former employee GRU Sergei Skripal Elena was hospitalized with coronavirus. This became known from the words of Skripal’s niece Victoria, writes ” Moskovsky Komsomolets “.
According to Victoria, Elena is 93 years old, she was diagnosed with 25 percent lung damage. She said that on December 29, the woman’s temperature rose to 40 degrees, an ambulance was called twice and she was taken to a paid CT scan – the city hospital was allegedly refused due to lack of quotas.
Victoria added that they were told to take the woman to the hospital, otherwise at home she “simply cannot be pulled out.” The medical institution did not make predictions. Elena herself claimed that she felt good, but studies showed the opposite, the newspaper writes.
According to the newspaper, in November 2020, Victoria transmitted information about the state of health of Elena to the daughter of Sergei Skripal, Yulia. As Victoria said, Elena begins to develop dementia, it is difficult to talk to her, but she recognized Sergei when he last called her. Julia promised Victoria to ask her father to call Elena again. She also said that after poisoning, the father walks with a tube in his throat, which needs to be changed often due to the pandemic, with the help of a doctor.
Sergey Skripal and his daughter Yulia were poisoned in British Salisbury in March 2018. London considers the Russian leadership involved in the incident. Moscow denies the charges.
