Moscow will remain on the hard quarantine after may 11. Sergei Sobyanin reported to Vladimir Putin that the output of the isolation is still premature, and resume cafes and hairdressers which could lead to further spread of infection. Work after may holidays will be able to start industrial enterprises and construction projects – a total of about 0.5 million people. While mandatory access control, rather, will complement mask. The President said he supports the decision of the mayor.
At the beginning of the meeting Vladimir Putin conveyed greetings from the sick with coronavirus Michael mishustina. Nothing new about the health of the Prime Minister, he, however, did not say, but hope is on the mend. “Everything is nominal. Not without fever, as in such cases often”, – said the President. Before turning to the issues of the lifting of the quarantine, the participants discussed how to operate the measures already taken to support citizens and the economy. Surviving in a pandemic, the Ministers (except for mishustina, the Cabinet bulletined Minister of construction and Minister of culture) traditionally pelted the audience with facts and figures, without going into details, what’s behind them.
Although all the officials were about in the same vein, Vladimir Putin why-that has any claim to the Minister of economic development Maxim Reshetnikov. “A lot of what I just heard is a list of decisions that were previously taken – noted with irritation of GDP. – I would ask you to take a closer look inside – where, what quantity of money issued, to whom”. In principle, Reshetnikov all these numbers are called. And even signaled that the funds allocated from the budget to support small businesses, almost at the end, you may need more. But Putin has decided that not enough emphasis is made of. “To structure all the information necessary to control the situation alive” – recommend to a novice Minister by the President.
In General, the head of the Ministry of economy and head FNS Daniel Egors has painted a rather bleak picture, observed in the Russian economy since the beginning of the regime of self-isolation. Economic activity in the country decreased by 33% compared to dekorativnym period: in the regions restricted the activities of enterprises, where 28% of jobs. Of course that by the end of April, more than 30% of tax revenues were missing from the Federal budget. Hardest dipped charges for severance tax, income tax and VAT. “The retail market is not working more than 36% of companies, revenues dipped by 25%,” – said Egorov. However, FNS, he said, can already see the effect of the easing of restrictions in some regions, which affects the overall figures. Compared to the first week of quarantine the number of working companies increased by 34% and revenue by 32%. In��ostanavlivaetsya and gasoline consumption: now it is 88% for the period to restrictive measures. And it was only 56%.
the Head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova encouraged that a number of regions will be able to continue the recovery of economic activity. According to her, the experts developed recommendations for the removal of restrictive measures in three stages. The first will allow a walk with the kids and playing sports in the street, as well as the work of objects of trade and services limited area with respect of social distance. The second stage will be lifted restrictions on walks with family members, start some educational institution, and will resume work shops larger, but limit the number of concurrent visitors. Finally, the third phase will open parks and squares, trade and services will be able to work without restrictions, visitors will begin to make hotels and restaurants. According to Popova, the decision on phased removal of restrictions will take the governors. They should target the rate of growth, the volume of free hospital beds, and coverage testing. If these indicators deteriorate, we will have to resume quarantine.
As already wrote “MK”, many regions are long gone and the first and second stage of the rejection of restrictive measures. Strict measures of isolation and quarantine by the beginning of may holidays has been preserved only in some regions, particularly in Moscow, where work was stopped, even on construction sites. In recent days, the situation with the incidence of coronavirus in the capital remains tense, however, assured Putin, Sergei Sobyanin, large numbers is the result of significant increases in the number of tests. The last two weeks the number of hospitalizations and severe cases growing. This, according to the mayor, speaks “of a certain stabilization of the situation.”
However, to abandon the mode of isolation may 12, the mayor does not believe it was possible. The ban will be lifted only on the activity of the industrial enterprises and construction sites, which will allow to work only 0.5 million residents. With regard to the scope of services, she, the mayor said, “open up” too early: this will entail the risks of further spread of coronavirus infection. Sobyanin’s words actually mean that the access mode in Moscow will be extended is not predictable until after may 11. Moreover, it will likely be supplemented by mask: objects of transport, as it is known, already began to prepare to trade in masks and other protective equipment. However, according to “MK”, the city authorities can allow walks and sport activities in the fresh air. However, not everything and not every day.
Before announcing his decisions (which obviously will not appeal to many of the inhabspruce capital ), Sobyanin, according to him, consulted with Vladimir Putin, and the position of the city authorities supported. “Yes, I support plans to open a significant number of industrial enterprises and construction. They are justified,” – said the President, focusing on the positive component of the report of the mayor. Putin again stressed that the key decisions in matters of lifting the quarantine remain with the governors. However, the government should continue to provide overall coordination. “I very much hope that in the regions it will be heard and the government will work actively, because we turn now to an important stage of the work,” – said the GDP, noting that the forward run is impossible, and in place to mark is meaningless. “We need to gradually move forward,” he concluded.
