Chief of Rospotrebnadzor Anna PopovaMOSCOW, Jan 14 All previously developed measures to combat coronavirus are relevant and effective against the new strain of «omicron», they must be used, said the head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova. «We already know how he («omicron» — ed.) behaves in the environment. And here he has changed. It is just as sensitive to all our disinfectants, it is just as unstable on environmental surfaces, if we process them in a timely manner. And here all our measures that were developed earlier are absolutely relevant, effective, and they must be used, » Popova said at a briefing on the situation with COVID-19.
