In Russia, where the infection with the new coronavirus is spreading again, economic activities have been severely restricted, such as suspending operations other than stores dealing with daily necessities in the capital Moscow and the second city St. Petersburg from this week, and the government has been severely restricted. We are urging citizens to refrain from going out unnecessarily.
In Russia, the number of people infected with the new coronavirus per day has exceeded 30,000 since the middle of this month, and on the 23rd, the number of people infected with the new coronavirus reached about 37,000, the highest number ever, and the infection is spreading again.
Putin has signed a presidential decree that sets nine days from the 30th of this month as holidays for businesses and other organizations throughout Russia, urging local governments to respond and urging citizens to refrain from going out unnecessarily. ..
Moscow, the capital city with the highest number of infected people, will start two days earlier and will significantly limit economic activity from the 28th of this month to the 7th of next month.
Specifically, we will suspend operations other than stores that handle food and daily necessities, and stop operations inside restaurants, close schools, and limit the use of theaters and museums to those who have been vaccinated. We also limit the number of people.
It is the first time in June last year that such a large-scale restriction has been introduced in Moscow.
In addition, the second city, St. Petersburg, announced that it will take similar measures, such as suspending business in restaurants from the 30th of this month to the 7th of next month.
In Russia, only about 30% of the population has finished vaccination due to distrust of home-made vaccines, and the government is becoming more vulnerable.
