At the beginning of January, the Omicron XBB.1.5 coronavirus was not detected in Ukraine, and the situation with the incidence of the coronavirus is under control. However, this is not a reason not to get vaccinated.
"The Center for Public Health conducts molecular epidemiological surveillance of SARS-CoV2 on an ongoing basis, and since the beginning of such surveillance, 928 sequencings have already been performed," the message says.
As before, according to the Ministry of Health, vaccination is the main means of protecting against the severe course of the disease due to the coronavirus and potentially new subvariants.
