ArmInfo. In Armenia, due to the spread of coronavirus, it has developed rather severe situation. This was announced on May 26 at a briefing by the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan.

In fact, as the head of government noted, this is the second wave of  incidence of COVID-19. As Nikol Pashinyan noted, recently discussions  have periodically been held on the subject of the reasons for the  second wave. Numerous studies show that the actions of the commandant  of the state of emergency are comparable to the situation and quite  effective. The task, Nikol Pashinyan continued, is to maintain the  rules of conduct established by the commandant's office.  Unfortunately, there is a problem in the quality of support for these  rules. The commandant's office established requirements for engaging  in economic activity and social life. One of these requirements is  the widespread use of masks, disinfection of hands, maintaining  social distance. Compliance with these requirements will not only  lead to a change in the situation, but also reduce the spread of  infection to zero. Using masks even at home can dramatically change  the situation for the better. The Prime Minister announced the  tightening of measures against violators, raids are beginning to  affect both individuals and legal entities. Tight control will be  carried out on interregional roads, up to the establishment of  checkpoints in order to identify persons without masks in vehicles.

According to the situation on the morning of Tuesday, May 26, 7,402  confirmed cases of coronavirus were recorded in Armenia. 91 patients  died from COVID-19, 3220 people were cured.
