1 | Russia's Potemkin Hospitals? | Hopitaly Potemkin Ao Rosia? |
2 | Prime Minister Medvedev visits a Moscow hospital. YouTube screenshot. | Tokony hatoky izay hitany ao amin'ny fahitalavitra Rosiana ve ny vahoaka? |
3 | Should people trust what they see on Russian television? No, says Moscow blogger Daniil Tereschenko, in a LiveJournal post [ru] he published on November 11, 2013. | Tsia, hoy i Daniil Tereschenko ao Môsko, ao amin'ny lahatsoratra iray ao amin'y LiveJournal [ru] navoakany tamin'ny 11 Novambra 2013. |
4 | Tereschenko, a member of a religious organization with nationalist overtones called the Orthodox Brotherhood of the Resurrection [ru], tells a curious story about Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev's recent televised visit [ru] to a Moscow hospital. | Tereschenko, mpikambana aminà fikambanana ara-pivavahana iray, miaraka aminà firehana nasionalista, dia miantso ny Firahalahiana Ortodôka ho amin'ny Fitroarana[ru], mitanisa tantara iray hafahafa mikasika ny fitsidihana nampitaina tamin'ny fahitalavitra [ru] nataon'ny Praiminisitra Dmitry Medvedev vao haingana tao amin'ny hôpitaly iray ao Môsko. |
5 | According to Tereschenko's anonymous “former classmate”, who works at the hospital, in the days before the PM was due for a walk through, the place went through some changes. | Araka ny nambaran'ny “mpiray kilasy fahiny” tamin'i Tereschenko saingy tsy nitonona anarana, miasa ao amin'ilay hôpitaly, nandritra ireo andro nialoha ny handalovan'ny PM, nasiam-panovàna malaky ilay toerana. |
6 | Two days prior, the hospital stopped admitting new patients. | Roa andro nialoha izay, niato tsy nandray marary vaovao intsony ilay hôpitaly. |
7 | At the same time, anyone who could walk without endangering their life was discharged. | Nandritra io fotoana io ihany, nalefa nody daholo izay rehetra afaka nandeha ka tsy natahorana hitera-doza amin'ny ainy. |
8 | But the kicker was this: | Fa ny tena nanaitra dia ity : |
9 | The hallways through which Medvedev was due to walk were quickly redone with stuck-on plastic paneling, and the floor was covered with new linoleum. | Naverina norakofana takelaka plastika haingana ireo lalantsaran'ilay hopitaly noheverina fa mety handalovan'i Medvedev, ary ny gorodona norakofana “linoleum” vaovao. |
10 | […] as soon as Medvedev left the hospital, the detachable plastic paneling and the linoleum in the hallways was immediately removed and carried off. | […] vantany vao niala ny hôpitaly i Medvedev, nesorina avy hatrany ireo takelaka plastika azo endahana sy ny linoleum teny amin'ireo lalantsara ary nentina niala teo. |
11 | The post, which had included no proof or evidence (aside for anecdotal), garnered almost 400 comments. | Ilay lahatsoratra, izay tsy ahitàna porofo mazava (ankoatry ny hoe natao hihomehezana), dia nahangona fanehoankevitra manodidina ny 400. |
12 | Many readily believed the story was true, and some had similar “Potemkin village” stories to tell. LJ user salome_lou wrote [ru]: | Maro no nino mora foana ny fahamarinan'ilay tantara, ary ny sasany dia nanana ny tantaran'ny “tanànan'i Potemkin” hotantaraina. salome_lou, mpampiasa LJ, nanoratra hoe [ru] : |
13 | It was the same when he visited the [Moscow State University] Journalism School. | Tahaka izany ihany fony izy nitsidika ny Sekoly [Oniversitem-panjakana ao Môsko] fianarana ho mpanao gazety. |
14 | I didn't recognize our main lecture hall, it was redone down to the carpeting, and later everything was taken away. | Saika tsy fantatro ilay efitrano fianaranay, fa dia navaozina hatramin'ny karipetra, fa taoriana kelin'izay dia nesorina niala teo daholo izany rehetra izany. |
15 | Another blogger told of a time [ru] when Medvedev visited a small town of Kozelsk, where the authorities decided to turn on the city fountain in his honor. | Bilaogera iray hafa no niteny fotoana iray [ru] fony i Medvedev nitsidika ny tanàna kelin'i Kozelsk, izay nandraisan'ireo manampahefan'io tanàna io fanapahan-kevitra handefa indray ny rano mifantsitsitra ho fanomezam-boninahitra azy. |
16 | Only it was winter, and freezing. | Ny tsininy fotsiny dia ririnina sady nangatsiaka ny andro. |
17 | A third blogger recalled [ru] a time when a factory in Siberia got free WiFi, only to have it taken away once the visit was over. | Bilaogera iray fahatelo no nahatsiahy [ru] fotoana iray fony nahazo WIFI ny orinasa iray tao Siberia, izay nesorina avy hatrany vantany vao vita ny fitsidihana. |
18 | Others questioned Tereschenko's post. | Ny hafa nametra-panontaniana mikasika ilay lahatsoratr'i Tereschenko. |
19 | One commenter said [ru] that rolling out temporary linoleum would be fraught with so many difficulties that this detail threw the rest into question. | Iray tamin'ny mpaneho hevitra no niteny [ru] fa ny famelàrana vonjimaika ny linoleum dia mety handrakotra olana samihafa marobe ka hotakon'io ampahany iray io tsy ho voaresaka ny ambiny. |
20 | Another reader noted [ru] the lack of incriminating photos (after all, everyone has a phone camera these days), and linked to a online photo-gallery located on the hospital's website. | Mpamaky iray hafa no nahamarika [ru] ny tsy fahampian'ny sary mamatotra/miampanga tao anatiny (sady izao koa, efa samy manana finday misy fakàntsary avokoa izao ny tsirairay amin'izao androntsika izao), ka nampifandray izany taminà tahirin-tsary tao amin'ny aterineto avy amin'ny tranonkalan'ilay hôpitaly. |
21 | The gallery shows clean, well lit spaces, and modern equipment: | Maneho toerana voazava tsara sy fitaovana arifomba ilay tahirin-tsary : |
22 | Hospital #67 photo gallery. Screenshot. | tahirin-tsary #67 an'ilay hôpitaly. dikasary. |
23 | Of course, that's not to say that these photos couldn't also be staged, as user Andrey Bibikov was quick to point out [ru]. | Mazava loatra, izany tsy entina hitenenana hoe mety ho sary namboamboarina ireny, araka ny anipihan'i [ru] Andrey Bibikov azy. |
24 | Finally, Tereschenko's post drew attention of the hospital itself - which published a response [ru] on its website. | Farany, nisintona ny sain'ny tao amin'ilay hôpitaly manokana ihany koa ilay lahatsoratr'i Tereschenko- izay nandefa valin-kafatra iray [ru] tao amin'ny tranonkalany. |
25 | The hospital denied that it changed its mode of operations or stopped serving and admitting patients. | Nolavin'ilay hôpitaly ny filazana hoe nanova ny fomba fanaony izy na nampiato ny fikarakarana sy fandraisana marary. |
26 | It also ridiculed the linoleum story, while admitting that there was some temporary carpeting set up in the conference hall to improve sound quality. | Nihomehezany ihany koa ilay tantaranà linoleum, raha nekeny kosa hoe nisy ny famelarana vonjimaika karipetra tao amin'ny efitrano nanaovana kaonferansa mba hanatsaràna ny lafiny feo. |
27 | It's hard to tell who is in the right, short of going to the hospital and seeing for yourself. | Sarotra ny hiteny hoe iza no mandeha amin'ny mahitsy, raha tsy ohatra hoe mandeha mijery maso any amin'ny hôpitaly mihitsy ianao. |
28 | Regardless, people will tend to believe what they want to believe - whether they see it on TV or read it on the Internet. | Aleo izany ho any, matetika ny olona no mirona mino izay tiany hinoana - na io zavatra hitany tanaty TV na novakiany tety anaty aterineto. |
