Interdepartmental Commission chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Yeraly Tugzhanov considered a set of measures to further stabilize the epidemiological situation and prepare for the phased removal of quarantine measures. 

Representatives of the Ministry of Healthcare and the Chief State Sanitary Doctor reported on the indicators of the stabilization of the epidemiological situation and possible scenarios for mitigating quarantine measures with an enhanced sanitary and disinfection regime. At the same time, in order to prevent the growth of morbidity, a number of new indicators for monitoring the work of regions have been proposed.

Tugzhanov instructed the Ministry of Healthcare, heads of local executive bodies to keep the epidemiological situation under strict control and to ensure a further decrease in morbidity rates. 

The deputy prime minister also instructed the regional authorities to investigate and take action on each fact of late payment of compensation to medical workers affected by the fight against COVID-19. 

“There should be no reason for complacency and relaxation. The regions need to improve the efficiency of the monitoring groups. If necessary, work out additional measures by departments and local authorities to further improve the situation. Special efforts should be focused on preventive work with the population, first of all, on observance of the mask regime and social distancing,” Tugzhanov stressed.
