В Кремле ответили на вопрос о дальнейших шагах в связи с омикрон-штаммом

«Сейчас, на самом деле, весь мир и ВОЗ пытаются понять, насколько он опасен. В данном случае вы знаете, что эта информация анализируется в правительственном штабе: весьма оперативно были приняты решения о закрытии некоторых направлений на въезд в Россию. Что касается дальнейших возможных шагов, это будет зависеть от тех выводов, которые сделают ученые о том, насколько заразен этот штамм, какие могут быть последствия, сколько имеющийся арсенал вакцин способен страховать от инфицирования и от тяжелого течения болезни», — сказал он журналистам. В 20-х числах ноября ученые сообщили о появлении в Ботсване и ЮАР штамма коронавируса B.1.1.529, который содержит 32 мутации в S-белке, необходимом патогену для заражения клеток. По мнению исследователей, многие из новых изменений в геноме SARS-CoV-2 указывают на высокую трансмиссивность этого варианта и устойчивость к защитным антителам переболевших и привитых, хотя окончательные выводы делать пока рано. Специалисты предполагают, что B.1.1.529 изначально развился в организме человека с ослабленным иммунитетом — вероятно, больного СПИДом или ВИЧ. Как пишут зарубежные СМИ, в ЮАР зарегистрировали около ста зараженных. Заболевшие есть в Гонконге, Израиле, Бельгии, Чехии, Германии, Великобритании, Италии, Австралии, Португалии, Шотландии, Нидерландах, а также, предположительно, во Франции, Швейцарии и Австрии. Все эти случаи — завозные. Всемирная организация

President of Belarus Lukashenko chaired a meeting at the Ministry of Defense in military uniform non-standard shoulder straps – not stars are placed on them, like all military personnel, but a coat of arms. The video recording of the meeting was published on the Telegram channel “Pool of the First”. Lukashenko regularly appears in public in uniform with special shoulder straps.

Political scientist Bolkunets called Lukashenko a beneficiary of the war in Donbass In a conversation with Lenta.ru, he said that, according to some information, Minsk supplies fuel, spare parts and weapon systems to both sides of the conflict, preventing the confrontation from ending.
