In Moscow, after passing the peak of the incidence of coronavirus infection, the increase in the number of hospitalizations has significantly decreased. This was announced on February 25 by the mayor of the capital, Sergei Sobyanin.
We are talking about, among other things, the Omicron strain, which was gaining strength after the New Year holidays.
“The number of hospitalizations has halved, including for children by 80%,” the mayor of Moscow wrote in his blog.
Moscow medical institutions are gradually returning to work as planned.
Earlier on the same day, the mayor signed a decree lifting a number of restrictive measures introduced against the backdrop of the spread of the coronavirus. It will go into effect on Monday, February 28th. The blocking of transport cards for citizens over 60 years old and people with chronic diseases will be canceled.
On February 21, Moscow Deputy Mayor for Social Affairs Anastasia Rakova announced that some of the capital’s hospitals are starting to return to planned work amid the stabilization of the situation with COVID-19. In total, more than 2,000 beds will be returned to this regime. Rakova also noted that soon hospitals will begin to provide planned and emergency care. In addition, according to Rakova, the usual activities in children’s hospitals that have not been repurposed to receive patients with coronavirus will resume in full.
On the same day, it became known that the Russians will be able to issue medical certificates on the transferred COVID-19 in terms of antibody levels at public services. This can be done only once and on condition that no documents on illness or vaccination have been issued before.
Six coronavirus drugs have been registered in the country: Sputnik V, Sputnik Light, EpiVacCorona, KoviVac, EpiVacCorona-N, and the Sputnik M vaccine for adolescents.
All up-to-date information on the situation with coronavirus is available on the sites stopcoronavirus.rf and access to everyone.rf, as well as on the hashtag #WeTogether. Coronavirus hotline: 8 (800) 2000-112.
