This was reported in the interdepartmental city coordination council to counter the spread of coronavirus infection in the city.

“The general trend towards reducing the spread of infection continues.

At the same time, it slowed down almost to the level of a high plateau, which, under an unfavorable concurrence of circumstances, can turn into an increase in the incidence rate, ”TASS said.

As noted, mass vaccination is the only means that can prevent a new rise in the incidence.

Earlier, the chief epidemiologist of St. Petersburg, Maria Dar'ina, in an interview with the Petersburg Diary, assessed the situation with the pandemic.
