Another 1970 people have recovered from coronavirus in Moscow over the past day. This was announced by the deputy mayor of the capital for social development Anastasia Rakova on Wednesday, October 14.
“Over the past day after undergoing treatment, another 1970 patients have recovered. The total number of people who have recovered from the infection has increased to 266,470, ”she said.
Earlier, the Moscow authorities urged the cured citizens to donate plasma for the treatment of other patients with COVID-19.
A donor can be a person aged 18 to 55 years old who has had a coronavirus and does not have chronic diseases. He must also have negative tests for HIV, hepatitis B and C.
In addition, recovered Muscovites can become volunteers and help those who are being treated for COVID-19 at home.
In connection with the increase in the incidence of COVID-19 in the capital, Rospotrebnadzor has strengthened control over compliance with the requirements of sanitary and epidemiological safety in public transport, as well as in large shopping centers, offices and cultural facilities.
Earlier in Moscow, reduced travel for pensioners and students was suspended, schools were sent on two-week vacations, and employers were encouraged to send 30% of employees to remote work.
The mayor of the capital, Sergei Sobyanin, called the theory that the coronavirus became less dangerous as questionable. At the same time, the mayor considered the closure of the city to quarantine as “the very last step.”
