In Western Ukraine, a crowd gathered near the house of a coronavirus patient
In the city of Chernivtsi in Western Ukraine, where the country's first case of coronavirus was confirmed today, neighbors gathered at the entrance where the hospitalized person lived - they demanded that the authorities isolate and isolate the sick person's wife.
Officials had to arrive at the scene and convince that the woman had no symptoms of the disease. However, this did not calm the protesters, who threatened to block the road.
As a result, doctors had to take her into quarantine. They promise to disinfect the entrance to the high-rise building within a month.
The married couple returned to Chernivtsi from Italy at the end of February. A middle-aged man developed symptoms of a cold, then became ill and was hospitalized. On March 3, his birthday, the patient learned that his diagnosis of coronavirus had been confirmed.
It has already been established that the sick person had contact with at least 10 people after arriving from Italy.
The Chernivtsi City Hall has already announced that, due to the coronavirus, the city will begin to disinfect minibuses and trolleybuses. There has already been a shortage of protective masks in pharmacies.
