Quarantine in Ukraine will be extended again

It became known that anoth­er exten­sion of quar­an­tine is planned in Ukraine. At the same time, local author­i­ties will be respon­si­ble for eas­ing restric­tive mea­sures. Read more about this in our arti­cle.

Recall that on May 11, the first stage of quar­an­tine exit began in Ukraine. So, parks and squares have opened, beau­ty salons, hair­dressers, non-food stores and mar­kets have start­ed work­ing. At the same time, pre­ven­tive mea­sures against COVID-19 dis­ease remained valid. Among them: wear­ing masks, keep­ing a dis­tance and using anti­sep­tic and dis­in­fec­tants.

The quar­an­tine itself, as pre­vi­ous­ly report­ed, was extend­ed until May 22, after which the coun­try should grad­u­al­ly ease restric­tive mea­sures. How­ev­er, recent­ly it became known about the prospect of extend­ing the quar­an­tine. This was announced by the Prime Min­is­ter of Ukraine Denys Shmy­gal.

“Offi­cial­ly quar­an­tine until May 22, but this is not the final date. We will be extend­ing. The sec­ond stage of eas­ing restric­tive mea­sures will be intro­duced when cer­tain con­di­tions are met. That is, when the num­ber of cas­es will decrease dai­ly over a cer­tain peri­od. Accord­ing­ly, the third stage is the unload­ing of our med­i­cine, ”

the prime min­is­ter said.

At the moment, the gov­ern­ment is active­ly devel­op­ing five stages of exit from quar­an­tine. The final dates are not yet known. Every­thing will depend on the num­ber of recov­ered and sick peo­ple. If the num­ber of recov­ered from the coro­n­avirus begins to exceed the num­ber of infect­ed, the eas­ing of mea­sures will be acti­vat­ed.

Accord­ing to the prime min­is­ter, over time, local author­i­ties will be respon­si­ble for quar­an­tine. They will be able to strength­en the quar­an­tine so as not to spread the dis­ease, but not weak­en it.

“May 22 is the date until which the quar­an­tine con­tin­ues, it will be extend­ed, but with a grad­ual tran­si­tion to the “adap­tive mod­el”, when we con­tin­ue to ease quar­an­tine mea­sures against the epi­dem­ic, but at the same time we will trans­fer more and more pow­ers to the places, in order to so that the dis­ease can be local­ized in the city where it occurs,

Shmy­gal added.

Of course, with the first stage of eas­ing quar­an­tine, peo­ple began to active­ly go out and vis­it shops. Many of us have already signed up for nails and hair­cuts. How­ev­er, no mat­ter how beau­ti­ful and warm the weath­er is, no mat­ter how tired of sit­ting at home, you should not for­get about secu­ri­ty mea­sures.

The coro­n­avirus has not dis­ap­peared and there may be infect­ed peo­ple among peo­ple who are not even aware of their diag­no­sis. So while walk­ing, try to avoid crowd­ed places, con­tin­ue to wear masks and wash your hands reg­u­lar­ly.
