Pulse

In Russia , 8926 new cases of COVID-19 were identified per day. For the first time from May 1, less than nine thousand cases were registered. In total, 290,678 people have already fell ill from the beginning of the pandemic. Another 91 patient with Covid-19 died per day, in total-2722 people. 2836 people recovered, only 70 209. A day earlier,77 people with coronavirus died in Moscow. This is the highest rate all time.

Since May 18 , industrial enterprises and construction have earned in the Moscow Region, but other restrictions remained. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin believes that quarantine is ready to remove 27 out of 85 regions of Russia . What regions are these, Mishustin did not specify. It seems that this is not the Krasnoyarsk region - there the outbreak of coronavirus occurred on the country's largest gold mine.

Vladimir Putin called for helping Dagestan in the fight against Pandemia - and accused the locals of violating quarantine and engaged in self -medication, and do not immediately go to the doctors. Dagestan ranks fifth in Russia in the number of cases - but they can be much more than officially reported. Here is our report on what is happening in the republic.

The United States sent Ivl devices to Russia and Coronavirus tests . In early April, it was the other way around, but the Americans did not use Russian devices - it turned out that they were unsafe . In Belgium, mortality in April became the highest since the Second World War . The economy of Thailand decreased for the first time in six years : in the first quarter of 2020, 40% less tourists came to the country than a year earlier.

News that can touch you directly

We tell you what to do if you began to drink more on the quarantine . How to understand if you have a dependence. Who to contact for help. How to replace alcohol if it helps to distract from negative emotions. Narcologist Dmitry Frolov tells about all this.

The passport data of Muscovites who violated the quarantine were in the public domain. According to Kommersant, by May 10 35 thousand fines were issued in Moscow. The fines payment sites were protected so badly that it was possible to collect the database of personal data with a simple breakdown .

Against the background of pandemia, small children began to suffer from Kawasaki syndrome more often. We explain what this disease is. It is rare and not dangerous: mortality is not more than 0.1% of all cases. The connection between the Covid and the Cavasaki syndrome has not yet been established. In general, it’s too early to panic .

When flying in Russia resumes, only half of tickets will be sold on a flight. Passengers want to sit so that they are not too close to each other. They will be given masks, gloves and antiseptics. This is the recommendation of Rospotrebnadzor .

What else

We asked the doctors if they received the premiums promised by Putin . Instead of generous payments, many doctors were given several hundred rubles for the “actually worked time”, although Putin himself criticized this practice. In hospitals that were not officially re -profiled under Covid, there were no allowances at all. Salaries, on the contrary, were cut.

Koronavirus forced the Moscow authorities to freeze the costs of improvement . We suspended the program "My Street" and other projects for 350 billion rubles . In total, in 2020, the income of the Moscow budget will be reduced by 15–20%, or about 600 billion rubles .

Sberbank created a company that will make a vaccine from coronavirus . The company is fully belonging to Sberbank andis called "immunotechnology." Its general director was Dmitry Efimov, the former head of the Nizhfarm plant.

What does the work of oncologists look like during the pandemic . These photographs , which the doctors themselves shot on the phones, shared with us the "Fund for the fight against leukemia." You can support the fund here .

PS In this mailing list there are not many good news, so tell me that you have good things while quarantine is around. And we will tell your stories so that we all become easier.

This is what the reader Kristina wrote to us:

Hello, "Medusa"!

At this difficult time, I with two young children ended up in an apartment in the center of Moscow, but after a week of hopeless stay there I realized that I needed to make my legs! And now for more than a month, as my children and I left for my mother in the Crimea! Living with my mother is a separate challenge, but to hear the wind and breathe sea air with a taste of flowering trees, biting with local strawberries, dear today! Hold on there, city!

Hold on, but what to do!

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"
