"We have consistently increased and will continue to increase the number of tests for the coronavirus in the republic. Now we are the fifth in the country in the number of tests conducted. The truth is simple here: the more tests you do - the more increase in the incidence rate is detected, while, accordingly, you "ruin the statistics". However, from the very beginning, I have decided for myself that the main thing is people's health and the desire to contribute to a speedy end of the epidemic," Radiy Khabirov posted.
