“It is important to understand that & nbsp; time restrictions & nbsp; EU & nbsp; are not visa-free cancellation and only & nbsp; & nbsp; ; said on the & nbsp; website of the department. & mdash; & nbsp; EU & nbsp; regularly updates & ldquo; green list & rdquo; & nbsp; and, if the epidemic situation improves, decides to & nbsp; return a country to & nbsp; such a list & raquo ;.
It is expected that & nbsp; The & nbsp; EU decision will come into & nbsp; force next week. Ukraine has been on the & nbsp; green list since & nbsp; 15 & nbsp; July.
Citizens of countries from this list can enter Europe without restrictions (for example, for tourist trips). Typically, this list is reviewed every two weeks.
For & nbsp; last week in & nbsp; Ukraine, the average daily incidence of coronavirus exceeded 23 thousand cases. On November 4th alone, almost 28 with & nbsp; half a thousand cases of Covid-19 were recorded.
This wave is already called the most deadly for & nbsp; all the time since & nbsp; the beginning of the pandemic (in & nbsp; on average in & nbsp; Ukraine from & nbsp; about & nbsp; coronavirus dies about & nbsp; ; 700 people per & nbsp; day). During the & nbsp; time of past peaks, the average daily mortality was significantly lower & nbsp; & mdash; from & nbsp; 200 to & nbsp; 400 people.
Most regions of Ukraine have been transferred to the & nbsp; “ red zone ''. A number of severe restrictions have been introduced there, including a ban on the & nbsp; operation of restaurants, swimming pools and & nbsp; gyms, the transition to & nbsp; distance learning in & nbsp; schools. The exemptions partially apply to & nbsp; those who & nbsp; who have a vaccine.
Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko predicts that & nbsp; new restrictions will last in the & nbsp; capital until & nbsp; December, but & nbsp; the peak of the wave, according to & nbsp; he said, is still ahead .
Currently, hospitals in Kiev are 70% full, wards with oxygen – by almost 80%. ; plateau & nbsp; & mdash; when growth stops and & nbsp; for some time the indicators are approximately at & nbsp; the same level.
The incidence of Covid-19 in & nbsp; Ukraine has stabilized, at & nbsp; while there is a risk of new growth, predict at the & nbsp; Kiev School of Economics. Over the past week, hospitalization of covid patients was kept at & nbsp; 5 & minus; 6 thousand people per day, which & nbsp; creates a great burden on the & nbsp; local health care system.
The situation with & nbsp; coronavirus is aggravated by rather low rates of vaccination: two vaccinations against & nbsp; ; Covid-19 received only about & nbsp; 17.5% of the population.
Last week, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky urged residents of the country to “ turn off social networks and & nbsp; turn on the brain '' and & nbsp; to make a vaccine against the & nbsp; coronavirus.
