China News Agency, Nur-Sultan, April 6th, Kyiv: Ukrainian official local time announced on the 5th that the daily growth rate of confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the country is 14%, lower than that of Italy, Spain and other countries.

According to statistics from the Ukrainian Ministry of Health, as of the evening of the 5th local time, a total of 1308 cases of new coronary pneumonia were diagnosed in Ukraine, 37 died, and 28 were cured. There were 83 newly confirmed cases and 5 new death cases on the 5th. Although the number of new deaths has remained at the recent average, the number of newly diagnosed patients has decreased to less than 100.

According to Wutong News Agency, Uyghur Chief Health Officer Liashko said that the current daily growth rate of confirmed cases in Ukraine is 14%, and the rate of virus transmission is slower than in Italy, Spain and other countries. He pointed out that from 100 cases to 1200 cases, Italy is 6 days, Spain is 7 days, the United States is 8 days, and Ukraine is more than 9 days.

Despite Liashko ’s recent warning that “If the people do not abide by the segregation regulations, the country may repeat the mistakes of Italy and Spain”, but “nervous things” still happen from time to time. According to the Interfax news agency, the first death case occurred in Chernigov region in Ukraine on the 5th. The patient was a male. He tried to leave the isolation hospital on the evening of the 4th and was sent back by the medical staff and the police. Fortunately, according to the local police, the patient had no contact with others while leaving the hospital.

In addition, the Ukrainian armed forces appeared the third new coronary pneumonia patient on the same day. The soldier received treatment for acute respiratory infection symptoms at home from the end of March, and was diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia after two tests.

In terms of the number of diagnoses, Ukraine is now the second most severe country in Eurasia, after Russia. According to media analysis, the pressure for prevention and control of the current epidemic situation in Ukraine is not small, and related resources such as isolation, detection, and treatment have become "tensile." According to the Ukrainian Ministry of Health, half of the patients with new coronary pneumonia in Ukraine are now treated in isolation at home. (Finish)
