The Epicenter business network said they are awaiting an official resolution from the Cabinet of Ministers on the weekend quarantine and only after studying it will a decision be made on further work. Earlier this day, Health Minister Maxim Stepanov accused them of trying “to make a sham about people’s health” via the 72-hour Friday mail.
The Ukrainian retail chain “Epicenter” has not yet decided how it will work on Saturday and Sunday in connection with the introduction of the “weekend quarantine”. Yulia Chudnovets, head of the public relations department at Epicenter, told Ukrainska Pravda about this.
“We are now awaiting the official resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers. After studying the resolution, a decision will be made on the future work of the hypermarket chain during the weekend,” he said.
On November 11, following the announcement of a “weekend quarantine,” the retailer posted a post on Facebook stating that they were announcing the 72-hour Friday. On November 12, Ukraine’s Health Minister Maxim Stepanov said he was outraged by this publication.
“Do you want to show off? Do you want to make a sham about people’s health? If you want to show off, come with me to the intensive care unit. Show off in front of people who die every day. Introduce yourself to people who have something in their eyes: “Help, please.” Show off to the doctors who fight for people’s lives every day. Do you need so much courage? “- said Stepanov.
On November 11, Ukraine’s Cabinet of Ministers decided to introduce a “weekend quarantine” in the country. Stepanov said that we are talking about three weekends, starting next weekend. The media wrote that said quarantine will last until December 31 of this year.
At the same time, Ukraine’s Prime Minister Denis Shmygal pointed out that the country would not endure a harsh blockade.
The European Business Association said if the “weekend quarantine” is introduced in Ukraine, business will suffer.
“Day off quarantine” states that from 00:00 on Saturday to 00:00 on Monday in Ukraine, only grocery stores, pharmacies, transportation, gas stations and veterinary pharmacies will operate. Restaurants, cafes or other catering establishments will operate take out only. “The weekend quarantine” will allow “stopping the wave of coronavirus disease,” Stepanov said.
As of November 12, registered in Ukraine 500 865 cases of coronavirus infection, of which 11057 – for the last day… 9,145 COVID-19 patients die, recover 227 694 people.
