Ukraine to Extend Adaptive Quarantine by Another Month
Changes to restrictive measures are planned.
The Cabinet of Ministers plans to extend the coronavirus quarantine until the end of August. Health Minister Maksym Stepanov said this in an interview with RBC-Ukraine.
It is noted that changes will be made to the current norms for restrictive measures.
“The quarantine ends on July 31. Given the current epidemic situation, we cannot abandon restrictive measures. So we will extend it”, — Stepanov said.
Ukraine has had an adaptive quarantine model in place since late May. Local authorities have the power to ease quarantine in regions based on whether statistics meet several indicators set by the Health Ministry.
As of July 14, seven regions were not ready for easing restrictions. On Wednesday morning, the Health Ministry reported 836 new cases of coronavirus infection, with 977 recoveries.
