“Indeed, we see an increase in the volume of population testing, the number of tests is increasing, but at the same time we do not see an increase in the number of infected people,” he said on the Doc-Tok program on Channel One.

Akimkin believes that this trend is associated with a decrease in the level of virus circulation among the population in Moscow.

“Over the past week, the level of circulation of coronavirus among the population in terms of the number of detected has fallen almost four to five times and today it is 2.6% in Moscow, and in the Moscow region - 3.8% and 3.9%, and it was 12— 14%, ”the specialist noted.

Earlier, the head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova said that the growth of the spread of coronavirus in Russia has stopped.
