Coronavirus in Moscow now, in April 2020, officially confirmed . More than two months have passed since the first case of coronavirus infection in China. During this time, the epidemic covered almost the entire territory of China, and infected people turned to medical institutions in 30 countries around the world. The World Health Organization first assigned the code 2019-nCoV to the virus, then COVID-2019 and recognized the epidemiological situation as an international emergency. This is due to the large number of deaths among the sick.
In Russia, two cases of infection with a dangerous virus were recorded - in the Tyumen region and the Trans-Baikal Territory. Not a single case of coronavirus in Moscow has been identified so far. However, due to the huge flow of foreigners visiting the Russian capital for tourism and work purposes on a daily basis, many Muscovites fear infection.

To prevent an outbreak of the coronavirus epidemic in Moscow, the Ministry of Health has taken the following restrictive measures:
- Foreigners arriving from China to Moscow are only allowed through Sheremetyevo Airport. All flights from China are served by one terminal F, which is equipped with the necessary equipment and insulators. Diagnostic equipment and personal protective equipment - masks, gloves, suits - were delivered to the terminal;
- Russian Railways canceled the movement of all trains between Russia and China "until further notice";
- Chinese tourists can no longer visit the capital and other cities of the Russian Federation without obtaining visas;
- Since February 14, all charter flights to China from Moscow have been canceled;
- Regular flights from the capital of the Russian Federation to the cities of China can only be made by Aeroflot aircraft. Other airlines have suspended flights.
Due to the fact that 10-25 days pass the first symptoms In this regard, the risk of the spread of coronavirus in Moscow is still high.
Is there a coronavirus in Moscow now?
According to official data, the coronavirus exists in Moscow and is spreading at a rapid pace. Not a single graph will show exact information on the number of infected people. Despite this, it is impossible to be unequivocally sure that the declared number of infected people arrived in the capital. The fact is that the symptoms of coronavirus are very similar to the first signs of the flu or a cold. If a sick person did not consider it necessary to contact a medical institution for help, it is impossible to determine the 2019-nCoV . In most cases, the disease is severe, but ends in recovery. In this regard, doctors cannot provide accurate data on the number of people infected around the world.
According to unofficial information, there are more than 25,000 unconfirmed cases of COVID-2019 in the Russian Federation.
Despite the minimal risks for Muscovites, people who frequently visit crowded places should follow the precautionary rules. Simple preventive measures include:
- wearing a medical mask in public transport, airports, shopping centers and other public places;
- regular replacement of masks and disposal of used hygiene products;
- frequent hand washing;
- maintaining the cleanliness of the home and workplace;
- treatment of surfaces with which there is direct contact with disinfectant solutions;
- strengthening immunity;
- refusal to eat meat of exotic animals;
- minimizing contact with people who have recently visited China.
These measures should be especially carefully observed by people at risk - the elderly, patients suffering from immunodeficiencies and severe chronic diseases. Among the sick is not a large percentage of children and adolescents. However, it is imperative to conduct an explanatory conversation with children about the danger of the virus and the importance of prevention.
What to do if you suspect coronavirus in Moscow?
There are no characteristic symptoms indicating infection with the 2019-nCoV virus. Coronavirus can be suspected if the following symptoms appear:
- an increase in body temperature up to 37-38 ° C with signs of acute fever;
- bouts of dry coughing causing chest pain;
- general weakness and malaise;
- dizziness, headaches;
- shortness of breath - the inability to take a full breath;
- diarrhea, nausea, vomiting;
- muscle pain.
The danger of coronavirus lies not in infection, but in the high probability of developing severe pneumonia. Violating the function of the lungs and the process of saturation of body tissues with oxygen, the disease can lead to the death of the patient.
the first signs of coronavirus appear in Moscow, a person should immediately consult a doctor. The right to choose a medical institution remains with the patient. This may be a public clinic or a private medical center. The specialist will take blood for laboratory analysis to determine the type of pathogen. Diagnostic results will be ready within a day.
If the fact of coronavirus infection in Moscow is confirmed, the patient will be placed in a special isolation box. His condition should be constantly monitored by doctors. There is no specific cure for the 2019-nCoV virus yet, so treatment is aimed at eliminating the symptoms of the disease and combating complications.
Vaccination against coronavirus in Moscow is not yet possible, since work on the creation of a vaccine has just begun. According to medical forecasts, this process will take at least 18 months. During this period, experts recommend carefully monitoring new data on infected people and following disease prevention measures. This will avoid further spread of coronavirus infection and its penetration into the territory of the capital of Russia.
