Dr. George Melikian is a doctor in Los Angeles specializing in infectious diseases. He spent weeks in Armenian hospitals during the 2020 Artsakh War, taking care of COVID-19 patients. He is back in Yerevan to investigate why the number of infections and deaths are increasing in Armenia yet again. 

Dr. Melikkian talks with CivilNet’s Ani Paitjan about the lack of respiratory devices in the country and the issue of late diagnosis, both of which lead to hospitalization and death. He also raises the question of the fear of vaccines. Melikian says vaccines are essential in the fight againstCOVID-19 and in order for the country to see an end to the pandemic.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
