Coronavirus Detected in Gyumri Infectious Disease Hospital Doctor

Yesterday, a coronavirus was confirmed in one of the doctors at the Gyumri Infectious Disease Hospital. This was stated today during a press conference by Shirak Governor Tigran Petrosyan. According to the governor, the infected doctor did not work in the tuberculosis block of the infectious disease hospital, where patients with confirmed cases of coronavirus and individuals from high-risk groups are located. However, the virus is present.

“At this moment, we have one death in the Shirak region, that of a 68-year-old resident of the city of Maralik. We currently have 13 infected individuals in the infectious disease hospital, and we are taking steps to identify and localize the contacts of those infected. Now, when most people are staying at home, all our actions are aimed at reducing the risk chain, and it is very important that we can fully reach our target,” noted Tigran Petrosyan.
