"Definitely the number of patients is higher than confirmed by tests. Not everyone was covered, ” he said.
At the same time, he added that the Ministry of Health does not set the task of testing the entire population.
“It is not the task for the healthcare system to test all 100%, because the main emphasis is on those who are ill, having the first signs of the disease, to help, at this stage to respond, not to bring them to severe forms. And many asymptomatic patients do not get sick, they can endure on their feet and after 14 days they become healthy," he said.
