“The Kyrgyz Ministry of Health proposes to close the border with China due to the spread of the coronavirus,” Interfax quotes Deputy Minister of Health Madamin Karataev.
He noted that the decision to introduce any additional measures will be taken at a meeting of the headquarters to monitor the epidemiological situation of coronavirus infection.
Earlier it became known that Russia from January 31, 2020 restricts traffic through 16 checkpoints on the border with China due to the situation with coronavirus. Russia is also suspending the issuance of electronic visas to Chinese citizens.
