On June 20, Russian Minister of Health Mikhail Murashko and Vologda Region Governor Georgy Filimonov attended the opening ceremony of the new building of the city polyclinic No. 7 in Cherepovets. This was reported in the press service of the regional government.

It is noted that the five-storey building was built in the Zasheksninsky district. More than 50 thousand attached residents will be able to receive medical care here. Filimonov noted that the new polyclinic is the most modern and largest in the Vologda region. More than 2.4 billion rubles were allocated from the federal and regional budgets for the construction of the facility, including about 1 billion rubles for the purchase of medical equipment.

"We have implemented this grandiose project with the support of the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, under the national project "Long and Active Life" and the people's program "United Russia," the governor emphasized.
