“Next week, we register a test system, it was made by Vector, it determines antibodies,” Interfax quotes Popova.
According to her, a population study has already been planned and developed.
“You need to understand what is being done in a population where it was very widespread, in Moscow and the Moscow Region, and where there was no virus at all, how protected and how unprotected the population was,” added the head of Rospotrebnadzor.
It will be possible to accumulate and analyze data on the immunity of Russians about ten days after the start of research, she stressed.
Earlier, Popova said that measures taken in Russia so far prevent an explosive increase in the incidence of coronavirus infection.
According to the latest data, the number of cases in the country has reached 5389.
