According to Popova, the most protected category were children of preschool and primary school age.

“If we talk about professional groups, the largest share of people who already have immunity after meeting the virus are medical workers, educators, trade and transport workers.

And there is a very small proportion among those who work at industrial enterprises, ”added the head of Rospotrebnadzor.

She noted that the employees of manufacturing enterprises practically did not suspend their activities, their work was organized in accordance with the recommendations of Rospotrebnadzor and with minimal contacts.
