Russia is also beginning to relax as a result of the crown crisis. However, some restrictions remain.

Despite the dramatic situation in the crown crisis, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin has stated that non-working time at the national level has ended. However, some restrictions remain. Putin announced Monday in an online conference broadcast on state television. Nonworking time was introduced in late March.

Putin promised extensive financial aid to families with children. According to this, there should be a payment of more than 10,000 rubles (125 euros) for every child from three to 16 years old. Smaller companies in sectors affected by the crisis should be exempt from some taxes.

Starting Tuesday, half a million people will return to work in Moscow. For example, construction sites and industrial plants may open in the capital. Stores remain closed. Furthermore, in many cities there is a duty to wear gloves and a protective mask in transportation and supermarkets. Putin had left the regulations in detail to the respective regions.

However, many Muscovites have to wait until they can go to the hairdresser, for example. There have been strict curfews for weeks. Anyone who has to go to work needs a special permit from the city.

Russia has a very sharp increase in the number of infections. According to authorities, another 11,600 new cases were added on Monday, a new daily high. Half were in the capital Moscow. This means that 221,344 people across the country are now infected with the virus.

According to figures from the John Hopkins University of the United States, Russia has reached the level of Italy and Great Britain in the total number of reported infections. Most of the cases are in the United States.

People over 65 years of age and with chronic diseases must continue at home in Russia. Putin, 67, called this self-isolation. In Germany, politics had always spoken against discrimination against older people. Putin also reaffirmed the surcharges for medical personnel after complaints about untold aid.

The number of deaths in Russia on Monday occurred in 2009. This is low compared to other countries that are severely affected. Doctors had explained this by stating that other causes of death, such as pneumonia, were indicated on death certificates; only clear deaths of Covid 19 were reported as such.
