Here isa map with data in Russia and a table with the latest information by regions.

In Spain, mortality continues to decline - nevertheless, the authorities are going to extend the quarantine. At the same time, Germany, Poland, Norway and the Czech Republic weaken prohibitions. In the USA - almost 800 thousand sick. On the map of the world, the situation with coronavirus looks like this:

News that can touch you directly

We told how to properly communicate with the police during quarantine. It is clear that now the streets are half empty, and there are a lot of policemen, so there is a more chance that you will be stopped. But do not worry and follow simple rules : most likely, police officers will only check documents and pass, if necessary.

Yandex made Coronavirus tests free. A test for analysis is taken right at home. So far, it only works in Moscow and some areas of the region. You can leave a request here .

What else

In Vladikavkaz, hundreds of people reached a ransom rally. They demanded to help with money to those who have lost their jobs because of the coronavirus, and tell how the authorities are going to fight the epidemic. The head of the republic went to the protesters, but it was not possible to agree on anything. As a result, the rally grew into brawls with police officers - and in the end the protesters were replaced from the central square .

In Tel Aviv, a mass rally against the authorities also passed. There, the participants observed a distance of two meters.

FSIN employees are infected with coronavirus, but the department still denies that the prisoners are also. Only the authorities of the Jewish Autonomous Region reported the outbreak of Covid-19 in the colony . Placed during the epidemic are in a vulnerable position: they are kept together, they often have poor health, many elderly. Nevertheless, so far in the FSIN with coronavirus fight only an enhanced work - prisoners sew masks .

In St. Petersburg, doctors who infected coronavirus promised 300 thousand rubles. If the doctor receives disability, then 500 thousand will be paid. Shortly before the authorities announced the payments, it became known that doctors began to hurt in the Pokrovsky hospital on Vasilievsky Island. And before that, they complained that they did not have enough protective equipment.

We recorded a podcast about conspiracy a related to coronavirus. Remember, recently they talked about theories according to which coronavirus spreads through 5G tower? So: it is not the only one. There is also the fact that the virus “fled” from the Chinese laboratory and that Bill Gates invented it. We talked about thiswith a specialist in conspiracy theories Ilya Yablokov .

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 the reader Julia wrote to us:

Hello, "Medusa"! And everything is fine with us! We sit at home in the wire. Three schoolchildren take turns attacking the computer. Pope Vita now has nowhere to even play his shooters. Kid Lev dances with a tambourine for days. And I hang out most of my time in the kitchen. And I calculate each time: "The rice was in the morning, buckwheat in lunch, which means that for macarona dinner." The children take turns taking out the garbage. And if he completely impresses a walk, then they go to stomp along the balcony. And in between cooking and food, we arrange photo shoots. We perceive all this as a vacation. Home sanatorium. All patience!

It would be nice for everyone to treat this. We will join the wish of patience with all our might!

We cover the situation with the pandemia of coronavirus as fully as possible - and use only proven sources of information. In our newsletter, unlike messages in Votsapp, there will never be pseudo -scientific nonsense. Pass this letter to friends and ask them to subscribe if you think that it is important for them to receive only reliable information.

Thanks for the trust, your "Medusa"
