Director of the Mangystau Oblast Hospital Nurlan Tlepov told the journalists about Berik Kulbarakov’s current state. “The patient is in a burn shock. We are focusing on stabilizing his condition. We are expecting a combustiologist (a doctor specializing in treatment of burns) from the Traumatology Institute in Astana to arrive.
