Questions about the third wave of CORONAVIRUS are inappropriate, and to prevent it, you need to be vaccinated, said the HEAD of the Ministry of HEALTH, Mikhail Murashko, on the Rossiya-1 TV channel.
“We are often asked about the risk of a third wave. It seems to me that this question is absurd, there is no need to wait, it is necessary to prevent it, “maybe” in this situation will not work. You just need to come, get vaccinated and not ask such banal and inappropriate questions, ”said Murashko (quoted by TASS).
In Russia, 8.5 thousand cases of covid-19 were detected per day Society
On May 9, Murashko said that herd immunity from COVID-19 would be achieved by September of this year.
Prior to this, on May 4, the minister suggested that at-risk patients treated in a hospital be vaccinated before they are discharged. It was about people with cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, as well as about the elderly.
