Last week it became known that 53-year-old Alena Amelina from Minsk had died as a result of the covid complications after serving an administrative arrest in the remand prison in Akrestsin Street. The woman became infected there. But how numerous such cases are in reality, is actually unknown.

The government has not taken care to provide the healthcare workers with everything we need. Somehow, you know, firemen don’t get sent to put out fires in underwear. And we don’t have any gear at all.

All necessary measures are being taken to stop the spread of COVID-2019 in Belarus, President Alyaksandr Lukashenka said during Friday’s visit to Belgips Company.

These are people who were among the infected or came from countries with coronavirus outbreaks.

Two more tests could be positive.
