In Russia, a record number of COVID-19 diseases are recorded every day. However, the president’s press secretary said that everything was under control, and the wave was retreating from Moscow. True, it is sent to the regions.
At the moment, I am glad that in many cities, serious restrictive measures are practically not introduced and there is an opportunity to move freely around the city, visit cafes, cinema, fitness clubs, cultural events and work. But the reports of the official representatives of the authorities are not at all comforting and people are in constant anxiety, waiting for the new isolation regime to turn on.
“Indeed, the background is quite heavy. Now the main force of the epidemiological strike fell on the regions, it went east of Moscow, so yes, indeed, the situation is quite difficult in terms of the spread of coronavirus, “Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
Peskov also said that the current situation requires extremely energetic efforts from both the federal government and the leadership of the regions. In these circumstances, you cannot shift the responsibility onto someone else and wait for everything to be decided.
The presidential press secretary assures that President Vladimir Putin is fully aware of the situation, so everything is under control. By this Dmitry Peskov means the stock of hospital beds, medicines and personal protective equipment. According to him, this is what makes it possible to control the epidemiological situation in Russia.
As for the introduction of measures to restrict the movement of citizens, then it is up to the governors. They themselves assess the situation in their city and decide how best to act. However, he clarified that their measures should not harm and damage the economic development of the country.
