More than 31 thousand Siberians fell ill with coronavirus

The number of coronavirus in the regions of Siberia continues to grow rapidly. No 316 people died.

The number of coronavirus in the regions of Siberia reached 31256, follows from the data of the regional and federal operational headquarters. They died, according to the calculations of Taiga.info, at least 316 patients with Covid-19.

In Russia, more than 537.2 thousand sick are registered. 7091 people died, 284.5 thousand recovered. The country reached third place in the world in the number of sick, but the mortality officially declared by the authorities is much lower than in other countries with a similar number of sick people. At the same time, the official data of Rosstat , for example, in April indicate that mortality can be much higher.

Against this background, Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to remove the federal regime of “non-working days” from May 12, transferring all the restrictions on the level of the regions, and also announced on June 24 the parade in honor of the 75th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. Putin also appointed “all -Russian voting” on a change in the Constitution on July 1, which will allow him to run for president until 2036.

The authorities of the Siberian regions began to weaken the introduced restrictions, despite the growth of the spread of the epidemic.
