“I would like to draw attention to the growth (number) of patients in the Trans-Baikal Territory, the dynamics there are still complicated and taking this into account, we need to help the region as quickly as possible, and first of all, of course, we are talking about the possibilities of the healthcare system,” TASS quoted Putin as saying.
He noted the successful experience of the Ministry of Defense in the construction of hospitals.
“I ask the Minister of Defense to immediately begin to deploy the appropriate structures, a hospital in this case in Transbaikalia,” Putin said.
On June 2, it was reported that the number of detected cases of COVID-19 infection in the Trans-Baikal Territory exceeded 1.2 thousand.
