“Information on the number of infected people is an absolutely meaningless figure, which speaks only of newly identified positive tests.
What is the point of publishing it, I do not understand for the reason that their number will only grow.
The coronavirus is not going anywhere.
It is important for us to know how many seriously ill patients we have, how many are in intensive care, how many have died.
This speaks of the degree of danger of the coronavirus, everything else is just numbers from the evil one, ”he said in an interview with the Rise.
According to Myasnikov, by now "there are no more seriously ill patients, more deaths."
“More tests have just been done.
You should be glad that the number is growing, because the more asymptomatic and mild forms, the faster we will achieve herd population immunity.
We cannot stop this, it will still happen, ”he stressed.
Earlier, the chief freelance pulmonologist of the Ministry of Health Sergei Avdeev said that "bursts" of coronavirus are currently recorded in 11 regions of Russia.
As noted in the Kremlin, insignificant growth is indeed observed in some regions, but "this is completely natural, because many have returned from their trips" and "the educational process has begun."
