On August 8, 2020, Minister of Health Maxim Stepanov called on the government of Ukraine to enhance control over the observance of quarantine in connection with the deterioration of the situation with the incidence of COVID-19, reports “Ukrinform”.
“We see a very significant deterioration in the situation. I will appeal to my colleagues, who are responsible, among other things, for the control of these actions, restrictive measures,” Stepanov said.
In his opinion, the coronavirus should not be taken lightly, because "COVID-19 is not some kind of political toy, it is a real disease that takes the lives of Ukrainians every day."
“Therefore, I as the Minister of Health will call to enhance control over all the rules that are established in our country, for all restrictive measures,” Stepanov said.
As reported earlier, the Minister of Health of Ukraine Maxim Stepanov explained that there would be no ban on attending churches during adaptive quarantine, but epidemiological rules should be observed.
