the Regional authorities are empowered to decide for themselves what methods to limit the spread of coronavirus. While President Vladimir Putin has threatened governors with criminal liability if the regions will be “gaps” in the fight against the new infection. However, what exactly is included in this concept, each one in its own way.
for example, in Kaliningrad, to reduce the density of passengers in public transport, the regional authorities have decided to reduce the number of flights for all regional direction. The result – overcrowded buses and taxis, people ride standing up, and tickets have to purchased in advance. However, on 13 April, the authorities changed their minds and increased the number of vehicles doubled. They promise that they will adjust the situation, depending on the fullness of the salons.
Meanwhile, in the Republic of Komi encourage people to wear medical masks preferential travel in transport. So, from 9 April, passengers of several city buses will have to pay the fare in the mask 21 rubles, and without it – two rubles more expensive.
But sometimes fail even the most promising solutions. April 13 in Nizhny Novgorod resumed the work of Gorky automobile plant. Before you run all the major industries were taken unprecedented measures of prevention: to deliver employees to the factory and home organized more than 100 buses. Before entering the transport people the temperature was measured, we were given masks on arrival and had to go to the “green zone” where the passage is organized with the observance of a distance. On the same day, appeared in social networks photo, which shows that the company crowded the dense queue of workers without masks and gloves. The plant’s management promised to correct the situation.
in several regions, the authorities have expanded the range of persons who have the right to penalize citizens for violation of isolation. In Ufa, among others, the list includes: Goszeminspektsii, employees of the Ministry of environment and natural resources. In Nizhny Novgorod to make protocols can representatives of Goszeminspektsii, of the Department of regional security of the Inspectorate of gosstroynadzor Department of forestry.
While the common practice in the regions on the violators of the regime of isolation is not formed. For example, one district court fines the birth rate for 15 thousand rubles for failure to comply with orders to stay at home, and the Central district court frees two people from responsibility for a similar violation, considering it “unimportant”.
the Situation “MK” commented the Director of the regional program “Independent Institute for social policy” Natalia Zubarevich:
– the Measures are different, but the situation with coronavirus in all different regions. Every decision maker in the extent of their understanding, to your countries�� risk, with little or no additional support. It is clear that the regional authorities to this was not ready and now we move to the touch, by trial and error.
