The main thing in the world

• Dutch scientists created an antibody for the Covid-19, which was able to defeat him in laboratory conditions. It attacks a specific vulnerable section of the pathogen - a protein in the form of a crown, with which the virus penetrates the human body. Now the antibodies should test on animals, and then in public, and only then can it become a medicine. But this is still good news: antibodies of this type have already made a revolution in the treatment of cancer.
• Another reason to hope for shifts in the treatment of Covid-19 in the foreseeable future-WHO is going to discuss with the US authorities and GILEAD Sciences, how to make its Remesivir (used to treat Ebola, recommended for the treatment of FDA coronavirus) more affordable. Data on the effectiveness of the drug seemed convincing. The medicine allows you to reduce the duration of treatment for coronavirus.
• Some countries begin to gradually weaken quarantine. In Spain, hairdressers open, restaurants and bars will be able to work in a discharge, runs are allowed. Construction and factories have already begun to work in Italy, from May 18 non -food shops and museums open. In Germany, small non -food stores have been earned, from May 15 the interrupted championship of the country's football championship will be renewed. Bloomberg has a detailed map of Europe with a description of messages.
• But in the United States, the situation is still very difficult: the country leads in the number of cases of coronavirus with 1.18 million sick, and the next weeks it may wait for a sharp increase in the number of deaths. As of June 1, it can reach 3,000 people per day (almost twice as much as now), and the number of new caring will grow to 200,000 people per day (against the current 25 thousand per day). This follows from the forecast of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which studied The New York Times.
• In France, the patient was found (scientists analyzed the biomaterial surrendered in December), who fell ill with coronavirus at the end of 2019. This contradicts official statistics: according to her, the first cases of the Covid-19 to France were brought from China in January 2020.

The main thing in Russia

• The chief pulmonologist of the Ministry of Health, a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Sergey Avdeev said that the coronavirus “Far” before the peak of incidence and Russia has not yet reached the plateau.
• It was known about the unwillingness of the Russian healthcare system after eerful situations 10 months ago, and the optimization of recent years was designed only for a calm life, said the co -chair of the ONF and the famous doctor Leonid Roshal. According to him, almost a year ago, ONF in a closed mode discussed this issue with representatives of the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Emergencies and the Ministry of Health. During the discussion, they came to the conclusion that Russia is not ready for the mass entry of patients.
• Sobyanin held another meeting of the State Council on Koronavirus with the regions. Among other things, it discussed the introduction of a “mask regime” in public places. In the suburbs, wearing masks is mandatory from May 11.
• Ninth graders can be released from the OGE and certified by current estimates, said the head of the Ministry of Education Sergei Kravtsov.
