The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has supported the initiative of Minister of Health Illya Yemets to strengthen the quarantine measures across the country. The corresponding decision was made at the government’s extraordinary meeting, the press service of the Healthcare Ministry reports.
"We must protect Ukrainians. I save lives all my life and now I will do my best so that as few of our fellow citizens as possible are affected by the coronavirus. We must act quickly and decisively," Yemets said.
