“However, compared to other countries, this is so.
For one hundred thousand of the population, we have about 12 sick people.

The day before, Putin, speaking via video link at the economic forum in Davos, noted that "there are no borders" for the pandemic, and therefore "lessons must be learned from the current situation."
