“The Coordinating Council and Health Committee expect an increase in the spread of infection in the coming days and, therefore, an increase in the number of hospitalizations of patients with COVID-19 and pneumonia.
The absence of a clear tendency for the synchronous growth of all indicators of the spread of infection is due to the fact that seven to eight days of the average incubation period of the disease have not yet passed since the end of the holidays, ”RIA Novosti quotes an excerpt from the council materials.
Currently, there is a tendency in the city to increase the number of residents' appeals to medical organizations about new cases of the disease.
On January 13, it was reported that the number of hospitalizations of patients with coronavirus has increased in St. Petersburg.
