\"Iran's
Iran’s coronavirus outbreak- The IRGC is hoarding health masks and disinfectants<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak<\/a> is continuing to spread across Iran and the death toll is getting higher and higher with every hour that passes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Iranian regime is\u00a0still continuing\u00a0to downplay the situation and it refuses to act responsibly in order to contain the outbreak.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

According to the reports published by the\u00a0People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI, Mujahedin-e Khalq or MEK)<\/a> <\/span>as of\u00a0<\/span>Monday\u00a0<\/span>over 2<\/span>6<\/span>00 people have died because of the coronavirus. Only in Gilan\u00a0province<\/a>, north of Iran, 408 have lost their lives.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0The people are scared a<\/span>bout what the future holds for them, and they are angry that the\u00a0<\/span>regime takes no actions and continues downplaying the extent of the crisis.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Governments<\/span>\u00a0across the world are taking action to protect their medical professionals.\u00a0<\/span>The Iranian regime<\/span>, in contrast, is deliberately withholding medical equipment and medication from those that need it. Reports from the country indicate that the notorious Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)<\/a> has been\u00a0<\/span>stockpiling disinfectants and face masks, and then proceeding to sell them at a<\/span>n inflated price \u2013 dozens of times more expensive than they are worth.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

As Iran\u2019s coronavirus outbreak escalates, the IRGC is hoarding health masks and disinfectants#Iran<\/a>#coronavirus<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/nnveDBPgHg<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) (@Mojahedineng) March 7, 2020<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Many health workers across the country do not have face masks and the\u00a0<\/span>regime\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0Health Minister has addressed the situation. In a letter to the Minister of Industry, Saeed Namaki, wrote: \u201cThe problem of health masks is still not\u00a0resolved\u00a0and an intertwined network of hoarding masks is selling its products at ten times the price.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The regime has made several comments about such abuses, but no concrete actions have been taken.\u00a0<\/span>Ebrahim\u00a0<\/span>Raisi<\/span>, the head of the judiciary and one the key players of the 1988 massacre<\/a> of 30,000 political prisoners<\/span>\u00a0said in an interview on March 1,<\/span>\u00a0that\u00a0<\/span>regime\u2019s\u00a0<\/span>prosecutors must \u201cshow no mercy\u201d when faced with individuals that take such action. But these words are meaningless when we see the IRGC <\/a>stockpiling medical supplies to make a profit.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Before the Coronavirus outbreak, face masks were selling for approximately 2,000\u00a0rials. They are now selling for upwards of 60,000\u00a0rials\u00a0in Kerman, and reports have been saying that in other places people are trying to sell them for 150,000\u00a0rials\u00a0each.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Health workers, clearly unable to afford these shocking prices, are resorting to making their own masks seeing as the government is not providing them.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The people of Iran are<\/span>\u00a0also making the reality of the situation known. They are using social media to spread the word about how the authorities are reacting. Social media reports have shown that IRGC agents have been selling air<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>fresh<\/span>e<\/span>ners under the guise of \u201cdisinfectant spray\u201d<\/span>. They are relabelling everyday products and passing them off as helpful in protecting against the virus.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The regime\u2019s deception knows no bounds and it must be held accountable for putting the people of Iran, and the rest of the world, into such a grave situation.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As\u00a0<\/span>Mrs. Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI)<\/a><\/span>\u00a0said:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u201c<\/span>The mullahs’ regime, which itself is the main cause of the disastrous outbreak, lacks competence and ability to manage the crisis and help the people of\u00a0Gilan\u00a0and the entire nation<\/span>.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Condolences to the people and grieving families of #Gilan<\/a>.
I urge Gilan\u2019s courageous youth to rush to the aid of those who have contracted the virus while taking all the necessary safety measures for themselves #CoronaOutbreak<\/a> #Iran<\/a> #Coronavirus<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/YqnFkHrmMD<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/nBdNjfegry<\/a><\/p>\n

Therefore, she\u00a0<\/span>urged the brave youth to assist and care for those infected. She called on them to help save the lives of their compatriots, while taking the necessary health precautions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
