As Trishkin noted in the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper, at the direction of the Minister of Defense of Russia Sergey Shoigu, the operational headquarters implemented and continues to implement a whole range of measures.

“For example, from March, an observational regime was introduced in all formations, military units and organizations. Dismissals, holidays, visits to military personnel were limited, ”he said.

Trishkin also added that work on testing for coronavirus was organized in a short time and is currently ongoing, for which 32 PCR laboratories are involved.

“Among the preventive measures can also be attributed to the early release in higher educational institutions and early exit on vacation for cadets of military universities and pupils of pre-university educational organizations of the Ministry of Defense of Russia,” he said.

Along with this, he emphasized that specialists daily carry out disinfection of vehicles, service and residential premises.

Earlier Trishkin spoke about the situation with coronavirus among the Russian military.

Virologist Felix Ershov in an interview with the FAN said that men tolerate coronavirus infection harder than women because of genetic differences and psychological characteristics.
