Coronavirus in Turkey: Government Targets Doctors
(Gatestone Institute) Sezen Sahin - Turkey's coronavirus death toll climbed to 649, Turkey's health minister announced on April 6. However, medical experts in Turkey who have called on people to take more precautions or who have criticized the government for mishandling the virus crisis have been silenced by authorities. Two physicians have been made to apologize after giving information about the threat of the coronavirus, and two others have been summoned to appear at police headquarters for statements they made to the media. Yet, according to a report by Oxford University, the number of coronavirus cases in Turkey is growing at a faster pace than infections did during the same phase in other countries.
