"It can be assumed that if the rate of vaccination will only increase, and precautions are still observed, the incidence will remain at the current level or, possibly, lower in the middle or late spring," - quoted RIA Novosti Pshenichnaya.

According to her, fluctuations in the daily number of cases are possible in both directions.

Pshenichnaya stressed that the rate of coronavirus morbidity is declining due to large-scale vaccinations and continued compliance with recommended prevention measures.

Earlier, the head of Rospotrebnadzor, Anna Popova, admitted that if all preventive measures are followed, there will be no third wave in Russia.
