06 March 2020 15:19 (UTC +04:00)

The prophylactic measures for the prevention of the spread of coronavirus disease in Azerbaijan are being continued. Currently, the relevant awareness-raising and medical measures are being taken in this regard, the disinfection works are being implemented in public facilities and other necessary steps are being taken in accordance with recommendations of the World Health Organization.

Note that if the symptoms of the virus are detected in the persons entering the territory of Azerbaijan, as well as the citizens being on the country’s territory, they will be taken under quarantine in accordance with the instructions and will be placed in relevant hospitals, and during the period of quarantine, the certain tests and treatment procedures are implemented.

We are sorry to inform you that in some cases the persons showing the symptoms of the coronavirus disease apply force against the doctor brigades, offer resistance to the emergency medical aid staff having come on call and try to digress from being taken under doctor’s control.

In this regard, we address people that taking under doctor control the person, who has detected symptoms of the virus, is essential for both the necessity of treatment of that person and non-infection of the patient’s family members and those surrounding him. In this way, the person will take care of the health condition of himself and relatives, as well as prevent the spread of the virus along the country.

Note that measures, relevant to requirements of the law, will be taken against every person, who violates quarantine norms and prevents the normal working regime of medical staff. To protect from the virus we also recommend citizens to follow hygiene rules, avoid crowded places, and temporarily postpone their visits abroad, if there is not a necessity.
