And I hope that the healthcare system will be fully provided with ventilators already within the framework of not only an extra bed fund, but according to the requests that are available in the regions, ”Manturov said. His words are quoted by TASS.

After that, the government plans to agree on the possibility of removing restrictions on the export of these products, the minister added.
