Lawmaker criticizes government’s measures on coronavirus prevention

AKIPRESS.COM - WHO declares coronavirus outbreak a pandemic. The government reported that 30 million soms were allocated for the prevention of the virus. The media reported on measures taken in the airport, said MP Ishak Pirmatov at the parliament meeting on March 12. "The only thing that I did not understand is why the government banned holding mass cultural, sports and other events. What about the cafes, restaurants and malls, which still operate in the country. America suspends travel from Europe to US over coronavirus," he said.
According to him, the only method used for detection of the coronavirus is thermal scanning of people arriving at the airport.
"It was announced that coronavirus incubation period is 27 days. Why the Prime Minister, Vice PM didn't make a statement. The work conducted on virus prevention is ineffective. What measures will our government take? They should make official statement on the conducted work," said Pirmatov.
