Everyone is now interested in one very important question – when will Russia begin to live a normal life again? The answer was given by Gennady Onishchenko, doctor-epidemiologist, doctor of medical sciences and academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
He noted that restrictive measures can be lifted in a month and a half under favorable circumstances.
“We will have to count 28 days. The incubation period will pass. We will see that the transmission has stopped, there are no new patients. We will heal those who are sick. There will be no new sources of disease in the country. From this moment we count down another 14 days and announce that the quarantine is over, ”he explained.
Gennady called this scenario an “idyll” and noted that not all of Russia is in a difficult situation. Therefore, some regions may leave quarantine earlier.
“People do not know that they are sick, and we are dealing with natural vaccination of the population. The person does not seem to get sick, but gets immunity. More than 40% of patients with coronavirus in Moscow undergo treatment at home, as with the usual flu, “- said Onishchenko.
