He told about this during the press conference of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, a video of which was published on the “Actual Science” page on Facebook.

According to him, NAS analysts established that the plateau phase had lasted about 2 weeks and already come to an end.

“We had a plateau phase, which continued for about two weeks, and we have now reached the end of this plateau phase. From the point of view of mathematics, this plateau was formally a peak. In effect, we have passed the peak,” explained Brovchenko.

“Starting from May 10, we have had a steady decline (of the coronavirus incidence – Ed.),” the head of the NAS working group reiterated.
