"And remember, was there such a Covid?"

Covid-19 seems to be taken and “canceled”. The pandemic was ousted from the news agenda and, therefore, mass consciousness not only in Russia, but throughout the world, with the exception of China, where, against the background of a splash of incidence caused by Omcron and/or its stealth version (more about BA.2 we wrote here ), the other day they introduced the Lokdown in the city of Shenzhen.

From March 15, as the website of the Moscow mayor joyfully announced , everyone can “remove the masks”, thanks to the “stable improvement of the epidemiological situation”. In addition to the requirement of mandatory wear of masks, mandatory anti -icing measures are canceled at enterprises and organizations established by the decree of the mayor of Moscow: regular measurement of the body's body temperature, installation of dividing partitions at workplaces, etc. It is assumed that this measure "will also support a business that has already experienced already serious sanctions pressure."

A survey of the Unified Vaccine Telegram channel, in which more than 17,000 subscribers took part, shows the following ratio: 10% will continue to wear masks/respirators in public places and premises, 59% never wore them, and now they will not.

The satirical publication of Panorama reacted with a message that in Moscow from March 15 they would begin to be fined for wearing masks in public places (it pleases that at least someone had the strength to joke). The networks are also popular to the best of an witty meme:

"" Omicron "left Russia. The rest of the strains continued to work for humanitarian reasons. ”

But, perhaps, one should not hope that the current isolation of Russia will avoid a new wave of Covid, said analyst Alexander Dragan.

Where are the money subscribers going

Most Republic materials are available by paid subscription. We believe that this is a good way to finance media. After all, as you know, if you have not paid for reading it, then someone else paid for you to read it. In our case, everything is honest: from your money, salaries and fees are paid to journalists, and they write about important and interesting topics for you.

The key feature of our subscription: your money is distributed between Republic magazines depending on how you read it. If you read the materials of one magazine, then your money will go only to him, while others will not go. That is, you finance only what you are interested in.

Republic uses the Redefine.media subscription. For design, we will redirect you to the Redefine.media website, where you will need to register and pay for the subscription. Authorization on the Redefine.Media website will allow you to read Republic materials from the same device.

A year subscription is more profitable than a month. And if you want to unsubscribe, this can always be done in your personal account.
