This was stated by the first deputy chairman of the bank Alexander Vedyakhin in an interview with RIA Novosti.

According to him, there were several scenarios.

“The one that is being implemented now indicates that the peak of the disease will occur in the first decade of May, and in Moscow it will come a few days earlier,” Vedyakhin said.

He said that the mathematical model was created on the basis of the GLEAM epidemiological simulator developed by Boston Northeastern University in 2009-2019.

On April 28, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the extension of the non-working days in the country until May 11. He recalled that the peak incidence of CVID-19 in Russia has not yet been passed, and urged the Russians to be extremely disciplined.

Director of the Gamalea National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology Alexander Gunzburg assessed the situation with coronavirus in Russia in an interview with NSN.

According to him, when within 7-10 days there will be a positive and statistically confirmed trend, then it will already be possible to assert that the country has gone through a peak.
