“The situation today, it is on the brink, is critical, and if we do not stop the growth of diseases, hospitalizations, we will have to take more stringent measures,” RIA Novosti quotes him.

Earlier, the mayor of the city noted that currently in Moscow there is no need to tighten restrictive measures related to the coronavirus, but if the city does not care about the recommended measures, then the likelihood of introducing tough measures is high.

He also ordered employers in Moscow to transfer 30% of employees to remote work from October 5. 

In addition, the mayor noted that the situation with the coronavirus in the capital is becoming more difficult every day.
