– We have four laboratories that can detect the new variant, two private and two state-owned, what is missing are the tests that reveal the Indian variant, we asked the World Health Organization – Danilov said.
The RCNiO secretary has not ruled out a complete closure of traffic with some countries due to the spread of the delta variant.
On Tuesday, the head of the Parliamentary Committee on Health, Mikhailo Radukic, wrote that there is a risk that a wave of infections in the delta will soon reach Ukraine.
