Russia (bbabo.net), - Residents of the Irkutsk region over 60 years old who have not been vaccinated against coronavirus infection must observe the self-isolation regime from this day on. Its effect will last indefinitely. Corresponding changes to the decree on high readiness in an emergency were signed on January 20 by Governor Igor Kobzev. This was announced today in the government of the region.

The tightening of restrictive measures is associated with a complication of the epidemiological situation due to the spread of a new strain of "omicron". The recommendation to introduce such restrictions is reflected in the list of instructions of the President of Russia to the highest officials of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the press service of the government of the Irkutsk region specified.

In addition, according to the changes made today to the governor's decree, employers in the Angara region are recommended to transfer at least half of their employees to remote mode.
