Health Minister Maxim Stepanov mentioned the main condition for introducing a complete lockdown or strict quarantine in Ukraine. The restrictions will be tightened in the event of a collapse of the medical system.

This was debated on the air of the program “Freedom of expression” of the ICTV channel.

As the minister explained, when the government talks about strengthening the quarantine, it depends on the workload of the medical system.

“By looking at the current dynamics, we can say that this (critical workload – ed.) from 25 to 30 thousand (New Daily Cases – ed.). In this case, the occupation of our medical system can be around 80%, and this is already a serious figure, “he said.

According to Stepanov, now in Ukraine in general occupied 52% of the beds for coronavirus patients. The most tense situation is with the occupation of hospitals in Kiev, Odessa and the Kharkov region.

“We continue to increase the number of beds for patients with coronavirus. We are also increasing the number of beds connected to oxygen and concentrators. We continue to increase the capacity of the medical system,” said the minister.

We will recall, before Stepanov said that the Ministry of Health will require a complete lockdown in Ukraine with the daily detection of 30 thousand patients.

We add that during the last day in Ukraine almost 11 thousand new cases of coronavirus were registered. More than 1,100 COVID-19 patients were hospitalized each day.
