The head of Rospotrebnadzor, Anna Popova, said that it is “categorically early” to remove restrictions on coronavirus in the regions of Russia, because in some of them the decline in incidence is just beginning. In her opinion, the effectiveness of the measures introduced “can hardly be overestimated.”
“I would like to note that in some regions, as soon as the decline begins, certain restrictive measures are immediately canceled. I believe that today it is categorically early to do this … The effectiveness of their (restrictive measures – “B”) it is difficult to overestimate, ”said Ms Popova at a meeting of the council on combating coronavirus infection under the government (quoted from the government website).
She added that in the near future in Russia the situation with the flu may become complicated. “Immunization against influenza … continues, but coverage levels are insufficient today: this is 36% of the total population, our target is 60%,” said the head of Rospotrebnadzor. , and this indicates the high risks of complications of the epidemiological situation in the near future. “
