Good evening,

This is the newsletter of the "Medusa" about the coronavirus. She comes out on weekdays instead of the "evening jellyfish." If one of your friends sent this letter to you and you have not yet been subscribed to the newsletter, subscribe here .

Pulse

In Russia, 4070 new cases of coronavirus infection were revealed per day (in total - 32 008 cases). Among others , 31 pupils of the Nakhimovskiy School infected. 41 people died. Roscosmos reported the death of two employees . 123 patients were discharged from hospitals.

The Moscow City Hall expects the peak of the epidemic in two to three weeks . Dmitry Kuznets from the Disassembly department did a study and predicted the likely development of the coronavirus epidemic in Russia - it turned out that no more than six thousand people would die. But for this you need to tighten quarantine and extend it at least until the end of May. Otherwise, there will be more deaths.

We madea card and a table with official data in all Russian regions. On the map you can see how coronavirus spread across Russia.

China has clarified data on the number of dead in the city of Ujan, from which the epidemic began. According to new estimates, not 2579 died there, but 3869 people . This is a significant difference: before clarification, it was believed that 3346 people died in all China. Chinese officials announced that during the pandemic, doctors simply did not have time to take into account everyone who died from coronavirus.

In Spain, more cases have been revealed than in the last days: 5252 people were infected. The total number of infected ones reached almost 190 thousand. Over 19 thousand people died - more than anywhere else in the world. Moreover, the local publication El Confidencial claims that this number is also underestimated. In Spain, you can not conduct an autopsy, even if there were symptoms of coronavirus infection, and journalists believe that the dead residents of the nursing homes are not taken into account in statistics. According to El Confidencial, the real number of dead can be almost five thousand more .

News that can touch you directly

Almost half of the coronavirus infected were infected with those who felt great. Scientists have found that in 44% of cases the virus is transmitted from asymptomatic media . This once again suggests that during the epidemic you need to shun not only those who sneeze and cough, but also everyone else.

In St. Petersburg, they are preparing to introduce a bandwidth. According to the local edition of Fontanka, if the number of sick people will grow, the passes will be introduced from April 20 . It is assumed that it will work approximately as in Moscow: for traveling around the city you will have to get a pass. From April 22, the entrance will be limited to Karelia from April 22: from April 22, the republic will be allowed into the territory of the republic strictly after five checkpoints .

In Russia, people with coronavirus are poisoned. Either from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, or from hospitals, their names and phones are picked up. After that, the information spreads with lightning speed: people begin to break the phones, threaten on social networks and shun on the street.

“My phone breaks off. My parents are also tormented by calls. My friends warn: “You, when you arrive, be careful: they are waiting for you here.” In the city they write that they throw stones that “they need to burn them”, that I should “be treated in a psychiatric hospital,” says Marina Makrushina, who was confirmed by coronavirus. “You don’t know what to expect from the crowd.” “Dad is now sitting at home now,” the girl complains. Cars began to come to the private house of the family, whose passengers lower the road glass and look for a long time in the windows of the Makrushin.

The Russian government allowed to treat Covid-19 with an anti-male drug. Gidoxichlorokhin will be transferred to hospitals for free . As in the case of other treatment methods, there is no confirmed benefit from it. We wrote in detail about this drug - and all the others that are used to treat a new coronavirus infection.

Until July 1, it may be paid by expired bank cards. The Central Bank allowed .

We know very little about what is happening in Russian hospitals. If you work in any hospital, please tell us about the conditions through this form . And if you know someone who works, ask to respond. Thank you!

What else

For the first time in several decades, China recognized the fall of GDP. In the first three months of 2020, the Chinese economy decreased by 6.8% compared to a year earlier.

Donald Trump introduced a plan for the abolition of quarantine. Trump did not insist on a specific date: the States will decide for themselves when to remove quarantine. Experts believe that Trump is in a hurry : the states have not yet passed the peak of the epidemic.

In Brazil, the president dismissed the Minister of Health because he played for quarantine. The president himself believes that it is impossible to enter quarantine , otherwise there will be no money in the country.

PS In this mailing list there are not many good news, so tell us that you are doing good while coronavirus around. And we will publish one story in each letter.

This is what Iri's reader wrote to us:

I self -speaking in the country with a dog, the name of the fox is. The Internet works great. I am engaged in scientific work: I write articles on the strength of materials, correspond with colleagues, look at materials. Participation in the webinar turned out to be very fruitful: I made a useful acquaintance, it is not just for an article, but it pulls on the project. Places near the cottage are very picturesque, and the fox and I go daily for walks. Although in the country I have many friends, in the name of caution we communicate with them only through the fence and by phone. Even somehow it is indecent to live so well in anxious time.

Hello to the fox! 🦊
