Diary of a Self-isolator: Day 54 [12 May 2020]<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Published: 12 May 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A round-up of coronavirus news in Kaliningrad<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is official: \u2018universal self-isolation\u2019 in the Kaliningrad region is no longer operational1<\/sup> and many people are back to work. Restrictions still apply for people over 65 years of age and those suffering from chronic diseases, and children under 14 years of age can only leave their homes when accompanied by an adult. These rules apply until 31 May 2020. Anybody arriving from outside the region is subject to quarantine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The usual precautions, such as social distancing, should still be observed and it is now compulsory to wear masks in public places, shops etc, but wearing masks in the street is optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shopping centres will be allowed to open, but for limited hours, but parks and sports grounds will remain closed and all large events with mass gatherings are prohibited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point I am not quite sure whether cafes, bars and restaurants have been unshackled. My translation of the press report I am reading states \u2018Some restrictions remain – for example, on the work of cafes and restaurants, hotels \u2026 \u20181<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diary of a Self-isolator: Day 54 [12 May 2020]<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The official number of people infected with coronavirus in the Kaliningrad region has risen and today\u2019s figure, at the time of writing (10.56am), is 7722<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn total, to date in Russia 232,243 cases of coronavirus have been detected in 85 regions. Over the entire period, 2116 deaths were recorded, 43 512 people recovered.\u201d (Source: newkaliningrad.ru2<\/sup><\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOfficials attribute the increase [in numbers of cases detected] to mass testing and detecting asymptomatic cases not always counted in other countries.\u201d (Source: the moscowtimes.com3<\/sup><\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was also reported today that the construction of a multifunctional medical centre in Kaliningrad is scheduled for completion by the end of this week4 <\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My plans are much the same: a once-a-week trip to the local shop ~ oh, and wearing my mask as I do so \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
