Poor management of medical waste in Ukraine can turn into ecological, public health disaster 

Workers of DSL-2010, the only enterprise in Kyiv that disposes of medical waste, throw used medical masks and gloves into the furnace on May 19, 2020, a few months before the furnace was shut down for repair. Much of the medical waste must be burned in special furnaces at temperatures over 1,200 degrees Celsius to kill bacteria and viruses.
