Lockdowns in Russian regions completely undesirable, says Kremlin spokesman
Lockdown in any of the Russian regions is a completely undesirable scenario; surgical measures are required to counter the COVID-19, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday, TASS reports.
"Lockdown measures is a completely unwanted scenario for any of the regions," the Kremlin spokesman noted. Peskov emphasized that "surgical measures were set as a priority since some relevant methods had already been developed."
Commenting on the fact that the heads of Russia’s Ural regions delay taking extreme measures despite the 95% bed occupancy in hospitals, Peskov noted that "all regions were empowered to take measures separately, depending on the local epidemiological situation".
