We are forced to extend the strict restrictions by at least 10 days. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced this during a live broadcast on his Facebook page.
“If we do not take clear measures, the coronavirus will reach us very quickly, despite the fact that there is also a theory that many of us, if not all, will be infected with the coronavirus.
Now we have at least two issues to solve: first, that the process be as manageable as possible and that the number of patients does not increase so much, especially that the number of patients needing serious medical care does not increase so much that our healthcare system is simply overwhelmed and we, like other countries, are forced to place beds under trees in the streets,” Pashinyan said, calling for taking the current situation seriously.
