14 октября 2021

The next week in Belarus will be devoted to a detailed analysis of the situation with the coronavirus. The innovations to counter the pandemic were discussed at the meeting of Alexander Lukashenko with the head of the WHO Regional Director for Europe. Hans Kluge arrived in Minsk to participate in the CIS medical summit, where countries share their experience. Belarus has chosen its own path in the fight against Covid, which has shown its effectiveness. When the world went into quarantine, we didn’t close the borders, stop the economy and follow a hard lockdown. The Belarusians have retained the right to live their usual lives, and doctors continue to fight for each patient!

The 4th wave of Covid and mutations of the Delta strain do not yet make it possible to make optimistic forecasts about the recession of the pandemic. Therefore, all measures are being taken to counter the infection in Belarus: a mandatory mask regime and a campaign to vaccinate the population were introduced. 2,5 million Belarusians have already been vaccinated with the first component.
