Roszdravnadzor temporarily banned the use of Ivl devices, two of which caught fire in hospitals in Moscow and in St. Petersburg . The United States abandoned the same devices. The medical staff of the hospital in Kommunarkwill receive payments assigned to him , promised at the Moscow City Hall. Yesterday, doctors wrote a letter to Putin with a request to find out where their money went.

We answered the most popular and important questions of readers about pandemia. Why do you need restrictions if in the end everyone gets ill? Will there be a second wave? How did the total mortality grow during the pandemic? When will the boundaries will be opened? Here are the answers .
The exam was transferred again: only those who want to enter the university will take it . The exact dates promise to call "in the near future." It will be necessary to take not three, but two exams - and both of the choice. In addition to the exam, compulsory exams in Russian and mathematics for nine -graders will also be canceled.
Doctors doubt that it is time to cancel quarantine in Russia. They also doubt that everyone needs to wear gloves without exception : there may be more harm from this than good, since not everyone can wear and remove gloves correctly. How to do this correctly , explains the medical editor of Medusa Daria Sargsyan.
Putin promised money to Russians with children and reduce business taxes. We asked economists how effective it is. Opinions dispersed, but in one they agree: it is good that people will receive at least some support, but they need to clearly .
Petersburgers will be distributed at 800 rubles instead of masks, but not everyone . The governor Alexander Beglov explains: “In our city there are many people and visitors, and derepical, and from other regions. Here's how to distribute these masks? Ask a passport and ask: where are you registered? " In short, they will be issued by registration.
It will be possible to vote in elections and referenda on the Internet and by mail . The State Duma urgently approved new rules because of quarantine. According to the project “Project” , this is necessary so as not to cancel a single voting day in the fall-if quarantine is preserved somewhere in the regions. Probably, amendments will come in handy at a referendum on the unification of the Arkhangelsk region and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug .
From June 1, the Lawkoster "Victory" will resume. So far only in Russia . "Victory" stopped flying in late March.
During the pandemic in Russia, mortality increased from alcohol. According to the Ministry of Health, during the period of self -isolation, Russians drink more, but not much - only 2-3% .
Russia's GDP in 2020 will be reduced by 4.5% . This is the forecast of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development . Not only a pandemic is to blame, but also the fallen oil prices. For comparison: the European Commission predicted that the GDP of the eurozone in 2020 will fall by 7.7% .
In the Saratov region, an official was fired for a comment on VKontakte . She fiercely opposed Putin's benefits to families with children . For these payments, two million Russians applied in the first day.
Twitter employees were allowed to continue working from home and after the epidemic . Earlier, Google and Facebook did the same. Everyone who, on the contrary, wants to return to the office will be able to do this not earlier than September .
PS In this mailing list there are not many good news, so we ask you to share good stories. And we continue to publish them so that everyone is more fun.
This is what the reader Arina wrote to us:
Dear "Medusa"!
In this new part of the quarantine, I took the younger sister to me so that my mother was easier and I am not so bored - the calculation was justified! Mom now in the evenings calmly listens to courses in architecture and painting, and I teach a child of a digital era to play cards, as I was taught in childhood, show me in the forest of different birds (observing a social distance with them!), I train to cook on time (Instagram slips so many delicious recipes for breakfasts that it is impossible to resist!) And I am a regime, to give an example, I change my own childhood And I can imagine my possible parenthood and practice. It would be nice after quarantine we all had a habit of stopping and being near our relatives, to think about something and just have a calm time. 😊
Agree!
