Participants of Folkloriada-2021 will take PCR tests at Ufa airport

Ufa continues to prepare for the World Folkloriada, to which groups and artists from 56 countries are invited. According to Deputy Prime Minister of the Republican Government Azat Badranov, some states refused to participate due to the unfavorable epidemiological situation and the difficult economic situation.

"Together with Rospotrebnadzor, we plan to organize express laboratories for the participants of the Folkloriada at the Ufa airport to conduct tests for the coronavirus infection," the Deputy Prime Minister of the Government RB said. “PCR tests are necessary, as on the days of arrival, the certificates of most participants, made 72 hours before departure, will no longer be valid. And they need to be done in Ufa since here we will already have prepared teams for hospitalization and quarantine. "

This week it is planned to start accrediting journalists on the Folkloriada website.

The event is scheduled to be held in Bashkiria from July 3 to 10.
