In the Moscow region, the incidence of acute respiratory viral infections is 54.5% below the epidemic threshold

Be that as it may, this year the incidence rate of acute respiratory viral infections and influenza in the Russian Federation is still very low.

This is largely due to the discipline of the citizens themselves, who more carefully monitor their health and do not commit rash acts.

Plus, more than half of the population has already been vaccinated, which greatly improves immunity.

According to the Moscow Agency, in the Moscow region the incidence of acute respiratory viral infections does not exceed threshold levels, and the situation is under control.

It is specified that the relevant ministries are monitoring the situation on a daily basis and have plans to respond to various emergency situations.

Thus, in some regions, when outbreaks of the disease are detected, measures are immediately taken to introduce quarantine and various restrictive measures.

Mandatory wearing of masks is recommended only in the most difficult cases, and is mainly limited to preventive measures.

We have previously reported that in Russia as a whole, the incidence of acute respiratory viral infections and influenza has increased by 78% in a week, but in absolute numbers this is less than 1 thousand cases.
