Vaccination rate reached 90% in five districts of Bashkiria

In Bashkiria, in five districts, the level of vaccination against coronavirus has reached 90%. Most of the vaccinated are in Buzdyaksky, Ufimsky, Chekmagushevsky, Chishminsky and Alsheevsky districts. In general, in terms of the share of the population who received vaccinations against COVID-19 , the republic is in 13th place among the regions. This was announced at a meeting of the operational headquarters for combating coronavirus infection.

According to the Minister of Health of the Republic of Belarus Maxim Zabelin, more than 1.6 million people, or 68.3% of the population to be vaccinated, have been vaccinated with the first component in Bashkiria. The second component of the vaccine was received by more than 1.3 million residents of the region, or 54.7%. In connection with the introduction of non-working days, the rate of vaccination has slightly decreased, the head of the Ministry of Health noted.

“We record the highest incidence rates in Bizhbulyaksky, Bakalinsky, Tuimazinsky, Fedorovsky and Zilairsky districts - exactly where the vaccination rates are quite low. At the same time, it is worth noting that over the past week we have reduced the number of beds in infectious disease hospitals by almost 1,000 units. This means that the restrictive measures taken are producing results,” Zabelin said.

The head of Bashkiria, Radiy Khabirov, called for strengthening control over compliance with the access control in shopping centers. Checks at trade facilities, cinemas, beauty salons, sports and recreation centers, fitness clubs, cultural institutions and intercity transport showed that violations were committed in a number of cities and districts. The requirement to present a certificate of vaccination, a certificate of the transferred coronavirus or a medical exemption from vaccination will be valid even after the end of non-working days, the head of the region recalled.

On December 1, another package of restrictive measures will come into effect in the republic. From this date, without a certificate of vaccination or a certificate of transferred COVID-19, it will not be possible to settle in sanatoriums, rest homes and boarding houses.
